The Life Stylist

A lot of people are struggling to live in our modern world, with all of the chemicals in our packaged foods and the bombardment of electromagnetic frequencies and radiation going through our body every day, but our guest Dr. Anne Cooper helps people get their lives back. Earlier in the week, we talked to the Deuterium Duo, Dr. Que Collins & Dr. Laszlo Boros, about what the heck deuterium is and how it’s contributing to the slow and steady degradation of our bodies on a cellular level. Dr. Cooper is their partner, operating as the Patient Manager and Healthcare Professional Coordinator at the Center for Deuterium Depletion. With expertise as both a natural and a functional medicine practitioner, Dr. Cooper can help both patients and other healthcare professionals understand deuterium depletion. She guides the day-to-day therapy patients go through and bridges any communication gap between the Center for Deuterium Depletion's principal and chief scientists training in allopathic medicine and the training received by chiropractors, naturopaths, acupuncturists, herbalists, nutritionists, and other healthcare professionals. We all deserve the ability to thrive in our world, without being forced to move off the grid. And while there's a lot our society could change to reduce the damage we're causing to our bodies, we can't necessarily control that – but we can start our own internal healing process. Are you looking for ways to reduce the stress on your body? Do you want to assure that your body isn't breaking down by the time you retire? Want to add a few more tools to your biohacking toolbox? Then you have to check out this in-depth interview with Dr. Anne Cooper. Topics Discussed In This Episode: Dr. Cooper’s extensive medical background and credentials: Clinical Nutrition, Applied Kinesiology, Functional Medicine, Energetic Medicine, Herbal Medicine, Acupuncture & Traditional Chinese Medicine The one tiny but significant neutron that gives deuterium its unique properties How your metabolic system works, on a cellular level, and how deuterium slows it all down Why we all need confidence and hope – and how these incredible doctors provide it The natural modalities employed by the Center for Deuterium Depletion Luke’s personal experience with deuterium depleted water How NAD (Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide) is related to mitochondrial function and ATP (adenosine triphosphate) production The simple science behind a healthy diet What Cignature Health’s D-Terminator Mask does & how you can use it How quickly most people reach their deuterium sweet spot using the deuterium depletion protocol Is fruit bad for us? Why we actually need very small amounts of deuterium, especially when we’re young Which foods are high in deuterium & what foods you should try to avoid Dr. Gábor Somlyai, the grandfather of deuterium depletion How you can get low deuterium water Supplements and other “healthy” products that are high in deuterium Keeping your pets healthy by reducing their deuterium levels Biohacking tools for a healthier and less deuterium-filled lifestyle More about this episode.

Today we're talking about an element that you probably didn't learn about in school, deuterium, and how it is likely contributing to the slow but steady degeneration of the human population. Our guests are Dr. Que Collins and Dr. Laszlo Boros, who are leading experts working to educate people on deuterium through the Center for Deuterium Depletion so that we can heal our bodies and improve the health of future generations.So what exactly is deuterium?It is a rare isotope of hydrogen (only 0.000155% of hydrogen atoms) that contains a proton and a neutron in its nucleus, and the extra neutron doubles the mass of this type of hydrogen atom.And when two deuteriums combine with oxygen, the resulting substance is referred to as “heavy” water, 2H2O, because of the additional mass. Although heavy water tastes and looks the same as ordinary water, it doesn't behave the same: it has a higher boiling point, a lower freezing point, and ice cubes made with heavy water will sink in ordinary water.These differences demonstrate that the presence of Deuterium can change chemical behavior.So why does that matter?Well, hydrogen is in the air we breathe, the food we eat, and the water we drink, and as we take hydrogen into our body, it becomes part of our blood, organs, DNA, and everything else that makes us who we are.So when deuterium builds up in your body, it changes chemical reactions at a cellular level and has devastating effects on your metabolism.Deuterium buildup can affect your ability to create and use energy, limit your DNA's ability to replicate, change how you respond to clinical treatments, and generally change, on a fundamental level, how your body works and, as a result, who you are.So sit down and get ready for Deuterium 101 because the doctors are about to share some information that everyone on the planet needs to know. Topics Discussed In This Episode: What is this thing called deuterium? How does deuterium building up in our body destroy our metabolism? The natural things our ancestors did to regulate deuterium in their bodies How much deuterium is a problem? Luke’s deuterium results from a breath and saliva test How deuterium breaks down three-dimensional structures & why this is detrimental How our society’s problematic diet is contributing to deuterium buildup The relationship between deuterium and diabetes, cancer, neurodegenerative diseases, and Lyme disease How you can eat a deuterium-depleted diet Is fruit a good thing to include in your diet? The metabolic water that you create in your body (yeah, you create your own water!) Why the camel is the mascot of the deuterium movement   More about this episode.Watch it on YouTube THIS SHOW IS BROUGHT TO YOU BY:Tonic Wellness Boutique.

What if Alzheimer’s and other neurodegenerative diseases are preventable?What if our choices at the grocery store cash register, and the decisions we make when we’re craving a snack, are contributing to or causing dementia?Those are the questions that drove Max Lugavere – health and science journalist, brain food expert, and the co-author of the New York Times bestseller Genius Foods –  to create his upcoming documentary Bread Head, a first-of-its-kind film about taking back the fate of our defining human characteristic: Our brains.Bread Head is also an incredibly personal story for Max because it documents his mother’s battle with a neurodegenerative disease. Unfortunately, there aren’t many viable interventions once symptoms start to appear. You’re just prescribed glorified biochemical band-aids and sent on your merry way. Max found that experience unsettling, and it drove him to pursue real answers.To Max, our current dementia epidemic didn't make sense.  The human body and mind can’t be designed to fall apart so dramatically as we get older. He’s determined to reverse the commonly held belief that getting older means eventually losing your mental capacities and becoming dependent on the medical care system. Or has he sometimes calls it- the sick care system.Through Max’s tireless research he’s making some very promising discoveries about how our diet and lifestyle choices shape the future of our brain’s health.This episode will teach you the real truth about how lifestyle and diet affect our health.It turns out that changes in the brain begin decades before symptoms develop, so the absolute best way we can move the needle on neurodegenerative disease is by minimizing risk when we have the chance. And every day, we make choices that move the needle one way or another.So what choices are you going to make today? You can start by diving into this thought-provoking conversation, then share it with someone you know who wants to keep their mind young and nimble. Topics Discussed In This Episode: How we trick our brains into believing that carbs and sugar are our friends Max’s extremely personal relationship with degenerative brain disease Searching for the links between Alzheimer’s and other chronic diseases Why the low fat craze was one of the worst things to happen to the American diet The average American consumes a mind-boggling 300g of carbohydrates per day How salt + butter + carbs pushes your brain to a bliss point that renders self-control futile The oils that you should definitely avoid or remove from your diet How to identify the best olive to purchase, and how to avoid fakes Why you should be thinking about the nutrient density of your diet The correlation between grains, gluten, and your cognitive ability The fact that there is no biological requirement for grains in our diet whatsoever Why saunas and cold therapy have so many health benefits Shopping Bread Head around at festivals Becoming truth-seekers who question authority Being skeptical, but never cynical   More about this episode.Watch it on YouTube THIS SHOW IS BROUGHT TO YOU BY:ONNIT.

Warning: I was tripping when I recorded this episode.Before recording this interview, Energy Muse co-founders Heather Askinosie and Timmi Jandro laid me down on a crystal-laden iMRS PEMF mat for about 20 minutes and guided me through the insane and wonderful experience they call Crystal Biohacking.This crystal-assisted device recalibrated my nervous system and calmed me down – so essentially, it’s a mobile battery you can use to recharge yourself.These ladies knew how to get me primed in my flow state, and created the most insanely powerful energy vortex for our recording.I honestly knew almost nothing about crystals before this conversation, so this experience was pretty much the perfect segue into my big question: What the heck are crystals, and do they have 'healing powers'?For some people they are just a colorful a rock, for others, they’re a tool – and for Heather, a natural born skeptic, and researcher, they quickly became an obsession. The more she learned about the power of these strange natural formations, the more she wanted to know how to integrate them into her life, and ultimately, her business. As a result of her growing curiosity and passion, Energy Muse was born in 2000. That was also the year Heather's former skepticism was laid to rest.Today, Heather and Timmi are working hard to shatter the misconceptions of the crystal world, by bringing these mysterious objects to the masses. They’re trying to destigmatize the practice of crystal use, and take the “woo-woo” out of the industry for those who might be scared away by the new age connotations crystals once carried.They continue to be motivated by the facts that the positive effects of crystals aren’t just metaphysical – they’re real, tangible, and very accessible to your anyone if they’re willing to try.So whether you’re a veteran crystal wizard, a skeptic yourself, or finally feel comfortable coming out of the crystal closet, the girls of Energy Muse are here for you in this epic, supercharged episode. Topics Discussed In This Episode: If a biohacking device is good enough for NASA, it’s good enough for Luke Crystals are energy you can touch and feel Taking the “woo-woo” stigma out of crystals & simplifying the practice Discovering crystals that supposedly come from outer space How long have humans been using crystals? An extremely commonplace that people see crystals, without realizing it: LCD screens, or Liquid-crystal Displays We’re all communicating through crystals in our phones, computers, and other tech! Programming ourselves like a computer chip You don’t need science to tell you that love works Coming out of the crystal closet Being the bridge between the woo-woo and science How crystals intensify energy – good, bad, or otherwise With crystals, bigger and more is not necessarily better The common denominator between us is that we have all our feet on the Earth Shungite: one of the most fascinating substances on the planet Getting in tune with what works for you, whether it’s biohacking or crystal healing Writing what is essentially a crystal recipe book, Crystal Muse: Everyday Rituals to Tune into the Real You The powerful shifting prayer that Energy Muse learned from Bobby Lake-Thom (you can check it out in the episode and try it out yourself!) What do the different shapes of crystals indicate? Why are women inserting jade eggs into their vaginas?

Have you noticed that mainstream spirituality as a form of self-help and personal development is taking the world by storm lately? There are guides, teachers, mentors, and gurus popping up onto the new age scene in droves. This is of course, for the most part, a beautiful thing, as we all know the world could use as many higher-consciousness thought leaders at this particular stage of our evolution.However, today’s spiritual seeker has to apply more discernment than ever before when selecting his or her modern-day guru. With so many teachers of spirit arriving on the scene, it can be tough to separate the true from false, especially when the aspirant finds themselves at a particularly vulnerable crossroad in life.  Our guest Danielle LaPorte is one of the most popular spiritually motivating teachers to emerge over the past few years. Her popularity is growing at a staggering pace. The thing that makes Danielle unique amongst the latest generation of gurus is that she isn’t claiming to be a guru at all. She’s not trying to convince you she has this whole life thing all figured out – she’s merely on her inner journey, inviting us all to come along and join her in her awakening, one day at a time.Danielle’s newest book, White Hot Truth: Clarity for keeping it real on your spiritual path—from one seeker to another, is pretty much a detox for a world inundated by self-proclaimed spiritual sherpas.The whole point of this journey, after all, is to become your guru; to create space for your voice, to own your issues, and to learn from your experiences and pain so that you might be given the opportunity to share the lessons you learn along the way with other soul travelers.Are you ready to give yourself a loving reality check and start finding your path to enlightenment on this journey of life? Pop on some headphones, and prepare yourself for some deeply down to earth spiritual truth. Topics Discussed In This Episode: Getting addicted to self-help Why narcissism is a painful trap (that doesn’t blend well with spirituality) How to avoid being pseudo spiritual The overuse + misuse of the word ‘Guru.’ How and why  Danielle created LIGHTER: a one-year soul support program How self-help devolves into self-criticism Why we’re addicted to our phones, and how we keep justifying the addiction Being successful without getting stuck in the lower states of desire + want Taking responsibility for your feelings Cultivating an open, tender heart and a big effing fence Using the human body as a tuning fork for truth The power of eye gazing with an open heart to appreciate someone you love Maintaining faith in goodness when life seems dark Considering the point of view of the soul’s evolutionary purpose The relationship between spiritual maturity and softness Why Danielle stays in touch with her feminine energy in every situation Danielle’s bag of meditation tricks + finding the right meditation practice for you   More about this episode. THIS SHOW IS BROUGHT TO YOU BY:JOOVV.

I started The Life Stylist Podcast to share some of the things I’ve discovered along my journey of personal development and self-improvement. But if there’s one thing I’ve learned in my 22 years of biohacking, it’s that too much focus on solely the physical tends to become in and of itself an addiction, obsession, or at the very least a distraction from the real task at hand- spiritual enlightenment.While we do need to keep our physical vessel (our meat suit) healthy, stable and in tune so that we can fulfill our soul's mission of love and service to others here on the material plane, it's a spiritual trap to become too enamored by the temporary loaner vehicle we call our body.So in this Bootleg Broadcast of a talk I gave at Bulletproof Upgrade Labs, I focus on the global human experience and the role of mindset, mindfulness, and spirituality in your overall health and wellness.Are you ready to start spirithacking? Topics Discussed In This Episode: That time I recorded my stem cell surgery and put it on YouTube A centering breathwork exercise Primary water – AKA the nectar of the gods Going out to hunt for your spring water How you can protect yourself from the onslaught of EMFs & turn your bedroom into a faraday cage Why I'm a sun worshipper How meditation creates a gap between ‘the witness consciousness’ and the phenomenon we call living life How you can take advantage of “negativity fasting” (and why you should give it a shot) The practice of prayer – not strictly religious prayer, but living in a state of recognition that we’re not separate from everything else in the universe Serving the highest good for yourself & others The prayer that changed my life forever Why all of these spiritual, mental, and physical practices have one purpose: they give us the capacity to be of service to the world   More about this episode.Watch it on YouTube THIS SHOW IS BROUGHT TO YOU BY:ORGANIFI.

In Japanese culture, if an object of value breaks, there is an art form that involves putting it back together with lacquer and golden powder – Kintsugi, or the art of golden repair.The repaired object is then considered more beautiful than it was before; a recognition that the imperfections and differences are part of our story, and part of what makes us attractive.There is another Japanese art called wabi-sabi, which is essentially the aesthetic philosophy that things can be perfectly imperfect.As someone who wrecked his life and put it back together, I can appreciate the metaphor.I also appreciate how these traditions inspire my guest Candice Kumai, the “golden girl of the wellness world.” She is a professionally trained chef, a leading wellness writer, a best-selling author, a Top Chef alumni, and a proud Japanese-American.Her newest book, Kintsugi Wellness: The Japanese Art of Nourishing Mind, Body, and Spirit, is more than just a clean living guide or cookbook – it’s a piece of art that guides the reader through Candice’s favorite Japanese traditions and practices for cultivating inner strength and living graciously, containing the tools we all need to reclaim the art of living well.Candice reminds us of the power and beauty of rebirth, shows us we can all start practicing the art of living well (no matter what age we are), and explains why cooking is one of the only resources available to all of us that will allow someone to change their whole life through simple ingredients & actions.We also end the interview with a question I’ll pose to all of you – How can we, as public figures and content creators, be of better use to you? That’s why we’re here, and we honestly want to know. Topics Discussed In This Episode: The incredible matcha cookies that Candice made for me (you can check out the recipe here on Candice’s YouTube channel) Birth, destruction, and rebirth is a natural cycle – and how sometimes the resurgence is the most beautiful part How Candice’s parents met through war, in a Buddhist temple What is wabi-sabi? Growing up, Candice was everything that wasn’t considered “Asian.” Like Dr. Seuss said, “Why fit in when you were born to stand out?” Why Candice gravitated towards her Japanese heritage Part of being honorable and humble is letting your work speak for itself Drinking vodka, from a biohacker’s perspective The mouth-watering photography in Kintsugi Wellness (which Candice did herself) What do people do differently in The Blue Zones, the areas where people live the longest & happiest lives? Why a healthy begins when you get a Vitamix Why cooking is one of the only resources you have to change your whole life through simple ingredients & actions Gaman, the art of high resilience, humility, and enduring Working with integrity & authenticity How can we, as public figures, be of use to you?   More about this episode. THIS SHOW IS BROUGHT TO YOU BY:BIOSTRAP.

Are you #OnShrooms? If not, why not?! Mushrooms are one of the most popular current wellness trends globally, being spearheaded by health experts and herbalists everywhere.  Over the past few years, many outstanding mushroom products have been brought to market, and the industry doesn't seem to be losing steam anytime soon.Jeff Chilton is one of the foremost experts on all things mushrooms and is an absolute veteran of the shroom scene going back decades.  He and his colleagues at Nammex introduced medicinal mushrooms to the U.S. nutritional supplement industry back in 1989. And as we stand on the verge of 2019, it's pretty remarkable that medicinal mushrooms are just now starting to hit the mainstream – because the vast history of fungi being used by humans for longevity and consciousness expansion goes back eons.Mushrooms have played an enormous role in Jeff’s life since he was young when a friend came back from Mexico telling tales of Magic Mushrooms. So while in university, Jeff ended up exploring the anthropological history of mushrooms worldwide, including their role in Shamanistic practices.Jeff didn't find much use for an anthropology degree, as it turns out, so Jeff found himself heading 60 miles down the road to work at Ostrom Mushroom Farms in Olympia, Washington in 1973.After ten years growing 10s of millions of pounds of commercial mushrooms – the edible kind that you find in grocery stores – Jeff found himself exploring the medicinal side of mushrooms, particularly the ancient knowledge of Chinese herbalists.But when he tried to bring that knowledge back with him in the 1990s, medicinal mushrooms were a hard sell in the Western world. Even the wellness world wasn’t interested in fungi – luckily for all of us, times have since changed.With decades of research and insight, Jeff answers pretty much every question one might have about mushrooms: What’s the difference between culinary and medicinal mushrooms? Are medicinal mushrooms able to heal everything the internet tells me (spoiler: they’re helpful, not magic) Why is micro-dosing becoming so popular amongst young entrepreneurs and creatives?  Were psychedelic mushrooms different 40 years ago, and what place to they have alongside a healthy lifestyle today?Answers to these questions and more are revealed in great detail in this comprehensive study of all things mushrooms. Put your headphones on one, and get ready to take a trip. Topics Discussed In This Episode: Overseeing the growth of 2,000 mushroom crops over the course of a decade – that’s approximately 40,000,000 pounds of mushrooms all together! Starting the United States’ first mushroom conferences The world’s governments that have made PLANTS illegal. The secrets of how and why How our education system shuts down the human mind and creativity The importance of set & setting with psychedelic experiences Surreal microdosing experiences & how microdosing relates to McKenna’s “Stoned Ape” theory of human evolution China actually began cultivating mushrooms as far back as the 12th century The economics of commercial mushroom cultivation VS medicinal supplement production What can go wrong while growing organic mushrooms What makes each species of mushroom unique There’s thousands of species of mushroom in the world... but we can only cultivate about 25 of them! How some of the most popular medicinal mushrooms – cordyceps, reishi, chaga, and lion’s mane – are used to heal the body Why reishi is the mack daddy of adaptogenic mushrooms (and if you’re only going to take just one, make it reishi) Fun fact: chaga isn’t actually a mushroom Don’t listen to everything the internet says – medicinal mushrooms are incredibly helpful, but they’re not magic or a panacea (and shout out to Jeff for having the balls to make this distinction) Why Jeff bought a professional geiger counter after Fukushima The extraction methods for different medicinal mushrooms   More about this episode. THIS SHOW IS BROUGHT TO YOU BY:ONNIT.

WARNING: After this episode, you will never look at your phone, internet router, or even your home appliances the same way again. This conversation is the ultimate Red Pill for the current state of electro-pollution, and its devastating effects on our biology.This show is dedicated EMFs, or electromagnetic frequencies. And it is going to change your life. If you care about your health, EMF mitigation should be your first line of defense. Some would argue that EMF awareness and protection is as important as diet and exercise when it comes to health and longevity.People ask me about EMFs all the time, and it’s such a vast topic, that I will probably need to devote an episode to this issue a couple of times per year, just to keep up. There’s always new information coming out about the potential dangers of EMFs, and public awareness is thankfully growing every day.When I spoke Paleo f(x) recently in Austin, TX, I found myself in a deep-dive conversation with #BrianHoyer, an EMF specialist and the founder of Shielded Healing. After testing the EMF levels around us in the convention center using his high- tech gear, I decided to find a quiet spot to record a conversation with Brian, to take a detailed look at this incredibly complex issueBrian’s mission is to shift people towards ancestral habits, and native lifeways that awaken dormant healing responses in the body – and to bring awareness to the unfortunate invisible side-effects of advancing technology that cripple our body's innate healing mechanisms.The good news? We’re not defenseless against these invisible stressors! Throughout this episode, Brian shares surprisingly simple solutions for minimizing or removing the damaging frequencies from your home, office, computer, and cell phone.Want to prevent your cell phone from causing a permeable blood-brain barrier? Trying to avoid being blasted by your microwave? Just want to feel better on a day-to-day basis?Brian has you covered.Please support the show by sharing it with  someone you know who is probably getting fried by EMFs, and would be interested in protecting themselves. Topics Discussed In This Episode: What the heck are EMFs and why should I care? All of the things in your daily life that bombard your body with electrical fields How we can measure the micro voltage on our bodies You’ve got the Paleo diet – now it’s time to create the Paleo space! The effect of your (and your neighbors’) microwave’s magnetic field Brian’s unique EMF testing technology The surprisingly simple solutions we can use to reduce the number of fields attacking us in our homes and offices How tech like Bluetooth headsets can cause a permeable blood-brain barrier Why shielding your home can fix problems like leaky gut What you can do to minimize the harmful effects of your cell phone (while still receiving notifications) How to shield yourself from the top four worst EMF's while you sleep, and the single most powerful thing you can do to protect yourself How we, as a society, could be creating healthier technology The benefits of turning your bed into a faraday cage Avoiding the geopathic stress caused disruptions in the Earth’s electromagnetic field The danger of smart meters Is grounding technology helping or hurting you?   More about this episode. THIS SHOW IS BROUGHT TO YOU BY:ALTERRA PURE.

This unique 'Bootleg Broadcast' episode was recorded live from an undisclosed location in Malibu in a room full of Life Stylist Podcast listeners, and some of LA's most fascinating and talented people – including Eli Block, Master Stroker and lead Orgasmic Meditation (OM) instructor at OneTaste.We skip the story of how Eli got into this meditative practice – you can check out my first conversation with Eli back in episode 10 to learn all about that – and dive deep into the nitty-gritty of how Orgasmic Meditation works and who it helps.Our modern sexual practice is hyper-masculine and extremely goal-driven.  It usually ends up following transactional rules, like commerce. I do this for you, then you do that for me, etc.But do you want to approach intimacy the same way you approach buying a sandwich? It’s not very sexy (and not very zen).Instead, perhaps we can explore a more expansive understanding of intimacy? Interested in aligning your understanding of gender, sexuality, and orgasm with nature? Want to develop a sexual practice with your partner that doesn’t solely focus on exchanging pleasure?Then you might consider a ride on the OM train. Topics Discussed In This Episode: What exactly Orgasmic Meditation is & how you can practice it with your partner Why this process involves stroking the clitoris with no intended goal Our culture has a hyper-masculine definition for a lot of things related to relationships – but we could all benefit from learning more feminine definitions The skewed commerce of pleasure What makes a hot makeout When Luke accidentally sent his father some super nasty porn in the mail for Christmas Why there is no “nutritional value” to porn How your rigid sexual preferences can mean the undoing of your pleasure The wildly different reasons different people have sex Why your sexual skill doesn’t matter if a woman doesn’t want to enjoy what you’re doing OM as a protocol for increasing sensitivity & bringing orgasm to the next level You can OM however you want to, with whomever you want to – that’s why it’s a practice! Why it’s almost impossible to do anything else if you aren’t experiencing human connection Getting down on your knees & putting the work in to learn how a clitoris operates The benefits of practicing OM, for men and women Why one OM session doesn’t mean you’re about to have sex (although it can make sex a lot better if you feel the electricity) Why sex is an energy debit & OM is an energy credit   More about this episode. THIS SHOW IS BROUGHT TO YOU BY:Athletic Greens. 11 supplements in 1!

For a lot of us, pain is a necessary catalyst for change. For me, it was hitting rock bottom with my drug addiction. For Kyle Kingsbury, it was watching his parents’ abusive relationship and years of struggling with suicidal thoughts.But while standing naked on the ledge of a parking garage on the verge of taking a suicidal leap to his death, Kyle felt, for the first time in his life, that he wasn’t alone- that there was more to life - and that he was loved.It was on that fateful ledge that Kyle realized that whatever needs to be done to find fulfillment, needs to be done internally – he wasn’t going to fix his mind or body with any pill or diet fad.Not long after that experience, Kyle started his career in professional mixed martial arts with the UFC. He had an outlet, he had a team, and he had a  significant goal to work toward. Plus, he was good at it, and that helped. (This primal warrior won his first two fights in under 30 seconds.)While fighting, Kyle dove deep into health, wellness, nutrition, and biohacking, with some detours into the world of plant medicine. All of this prepared him for his current role as Director of Human Optimization (AKA the company guinea pig) at Onnit, an incredible company dedicated to Total Human Optimization (and a biohacker’s best friend).Once you experience the power of a proper diet, supplements, nootropics, cold thermogenesis, breathwork, and even microdosing in the pursuit of Total Human Optimization, you’ll feel the difference – and you’ll know that this biohacking stuff is more than just a bunch of trends. Topics Discussed In This Episode: How Kyle used fighting as a coping mechanism, early and often Advocating for the useful drugs & against the destructive drugs Learning to quiet the mental noise without narcotics What it’s like to struggle with suicidal thoughts as early as seven years old The respectful camaraderie between professional fighters How getting put on the bench in college football fueled Kyle’s fighting The pain of genuinely believing that no one will ever love you When Kyle realized he wasn’t alone & there was more to life... while standing at the edge of a suicidal plunge to death The boxing coach that brought Kyle to traditional sweat lodges before and after every fight camp Discovering the world of plant medicines: psilocybin, ayahuasca, and more How diet, supplements, nootropics, and even microdosing play a role in Total Human Optimization Why Kyle had to be a bouncer and bartender at a strip club almost the entire time he was in the UFC What it’s like to experience a life of Total Human Optimization A day in the presence of Kyle Kingsbury: breathwork, cold thermogenesis, killer workouts, and more The transformative plant medicine experiences that Kyle has gone through with his wife (and the insane sex that they have had while using various substances) Teaching your kids the right & wrong ways to use plant medicines + other parenting insights   More about this episode.Watch it on YouTube THIS SHOW IS BROUGHT TO YOU BY:FOUR SIGMATIC.

I recently had the opportunity to moderate a panel of leaders in the spiritual community at an event in LA called WITMA. One of the most intriguing of my panelists was a tall, dark, and incredibly straight talking man by the name of Shaman Durek. He stood out in the crowd not only because of his colorful, tribal fashion adornment but because of his zero f***s given approach to spirituality. His raw, tough love approach immediately struck a chord in me, and I knew the moment I saw him that we’d become soul brothers. And that’s precisely what happened.Fast forward a few months to lots of texting, and one hell of a shamanic healing session at my house a month before this podcast was recorded. Durek came over to kindly offer one of his famous healing sessions, and what took place was about as close to the supernatural as it gets. Needless to say, I was not only impressed by his abilities to find hidden mental ghosts and emotional blockages within me, but I knew then that someday we would record one hell of a podcast together.Well, it wasn’t long after that that Durek was back in LA (he leads a somewhat nomadic lifestyle), so we decided to make my home the location of our biohacking geek out session. The plan was at first to hang and catch up, but I couldn’t resist the opportunity to capture our conversation on audio and video. Durek somewhat reluctantly agreed to let me basically wiretap our bro time, and create some genuine and unedited dialog.What resulted was nothing short of magical. After doing a shamanic reading on my friend Elliot who happened to be at my house when Durek arrived, we proceeded to throw some mics up and not only record Durek as a guest on my show but also me as a guest on his show, Ancient Wisdom Today. Between the two recordings, we talked non-stop until 4 am. Way past my bedtime, but worth it in every sense.In this episode Shaman Durek takes us on an epic journey into the depths of our soul, calling in great spirits by drawing on his shamanic, ancestral wisdom to get to the root of human suffering to offer profound solutions of deep healing.I invite you to take some time to get yourself present and open your mind to the fascinating world of Shaman Durek. Topics Discussed In This Episode: The mind-blowing things that Shaman Durek witnessed during his near-death experience The three-word answer to mankind’s biggest question to god: Why is there evil and suffering? How we can collectively escape the victim consciousness & evolve without suffering The lifestyle that allowed the Durek to shed 30 pounds in 30 days Asking your body what it needs – and then actually listening The spirituality of Metallica Why being in love with yourself is one of the most potent spirithacks The message that Shaman Durek is going to share no matter what – even if it kills him How you can tell the difference between a craving and a need (in every area of your life) What do you need to feel lit every day? Learning about God by learning about what God created – AKA you Getting out of the me consciousness & embracing the WE consciousness How the Durek is empowering women all over the globe Why we currently lack radical leaders like Martin Luther King, Jr. in our world The purpose of being a lightworker Facing the evil on this planet with love The escapism of pornography & rock ‘n’ roll The vicious cycle of addiction What spiritual debt is & how it affects us on a physical level   More about this episode.Watch it on YouTube THIS SHOW IS BROUGHT TO YOU BY:BIOSTRAP.

If you name a weird health device, I’ve probably tried it. I’m always looking for the best, the newest, and the most powerful ways to transform my health – but after over 21 years, I have a closet full of things that sound awesome in theory but are iffy in practice.But from the moment I first tried the NanoVI, I just had more energy. It’s downright magical how sitting in front of this weird little tube makes you feel, and I bring it with me almost everywhere.So what does NanoVI actually do and why does it work? I sat down with the mad genius who created the technology, Hans Eng, and his partner in crime, Rowena Gates, to find out.We get into the nitty gritty in this episode, but basically NanoVI helps repair everyday cell damage caused by what you put in and around your body. We can’t avoid cell damage, but we can do something about it.In the past, people have tried to improve cellular activity by overriding their body’s natural functions using pharmaceuticals. But the NanoVI devices actually produce the same biological signal your body makes to repair cell damage brought on by free radicals.This is because Hans and Rowena embrace a really forward-thinking and powerful mindset around health, which you can see in all of their products: we are not going to successfully override our body, so we need to work with it.Are you ready to stop pushing your body around and start working with it? Topics Discussed In This Episode: Hans’ 25+ years of experience with advanced medical technologies, including his time with Johnson & Johnson and helping to create the first dental implant What it’s like before and after someone gets to experience Luke’s biohacking toolkit Why all water isn’t created equal What the 4th phase of water is & how it heals our bodies How Luke used NanoVI to maximize his stem cell treatment What you need to know about how water, food, and proteins help our bodies function The body’s nearly unlimited ability to repair (regardless of what conventional thinking might suggest) How NanoVI works with your body instead of overriding it Why the term ‘incurable disease’ is BS What oxidative stress is & why you want your body to repair it Why the human body is more like a cloud than a bucket of water How NanoVI helps the J2 racing team take on the most dangerous course in the world, the Nurburing/Nordschleife Why companies are embracing the NanoVI for peak performance   More about this episode.Watch it on YouTube THIS SHOW IS BROUGHT TO YOU BY:Athletic Greens. 11 supplements in 1!

Sahara Rose, the author of The Idiot’s Guide to Ayurveda & Eat Feel Fresh, was one of the six people featured in the Longevity Now All-Stars episode released a couple weeks back (episode #147). She had so much Ayurvedic wisdom to share that I had to get her back behind the mic a second time while we were at the conference so that I could extract some more of that knowledge and share it with all of you.If you’re not familiar with Ayurveda, let me give you a quick rundown: It’s the world’s oldest health system, originating in India over 5,000 years ago as a sister science to yoga. A ton of the common sense health practices we do today – and many of the health “trends” popular in the wellness world – can actually be traced back to Ayurveda.Sahara represents the next step of Ayurvedic tradition and, according to Deepak Chopra, she is leading our generation into a new paradigm shift – a paradigm that reflects the melding of Ayurvedic healing and spiritual wisdom with modern Western nutritional science and psychology.Need Ayurveda 101? Desperately want to live a life aligned with your purpose? Craving a different perspective on the mind-body connection? Just want better digestion?Sahara and the Ayurvedic tradition have you covered for all of that and more. Topics Discussed In This Episode: Why Ayurveda is for the common person (unlike its sister science, Yoga) Growing up with two first-generation Indian immigrants & just wanting to fit in When Sahara started consuming Lunchables, Kool-Aid, and other sugary poison Weird alien shit that happens to Sahara’s boyfriend Picking up hot yoga just to gain weight… but getting a whole lot more out of it Living in a jail in Costa Rica at the age of 15 & other on-the-ground volunteer work Becoming a diehard raw vegan & still experiencing health issues How to thoughtfully craft a diet based on where you live & what your body needs What the three Dosha are & how your Dosha affect you How Jennifer Lopez & Donald Trump represent the opposite ends of Pitta Why the dosha in your mind isn’t necessarily the same as the dosha in your body – and what you can do to bring balance to them in different ways Your dosha & your love relationships Why tongue scraping isn’t just a trend – it’s effective Luke’s crazy panchakarma experience and why this is such a powerful detoxification treatment What you can expect from Sahara’s upcoming cookbook, Eat Feel Fresh   More about this episode.

Right before this episode, Justin Mares and I sequestered ourselves in my biohacking lab for an extreme session of brain hacking. It was the perfect way to set the scene for this conversation on the state of the food industry, bone broth, and all of the ancient technologies that are new again in the health & wellness world.Justin is the Founder of Kettle & Fire, creators of the first 100% grass-fed, non-frozen, shelf-stable beef bone broth on the market.Justin and his brother started Kettle & Fire after hearing about bone broth and its amazing health benefits back in 2013... but it wasn't exactly easy to find. That kicked off a year-long journey to find the best manufacturer, bones, and ingredients.Thanks to all of Justin's hard work, you don't have to do anything to reap the benefits of bone broth made from the best ingredients available.Taking the hassle out of the equation was extremely important to Justin, and it all comes down to a very simple formula:Health + Convenience = Lifestyle ChangeFor most people, changing to a healthier lifestyle can feel overwhelming - don't do this, do a lot of that, avoid blue light, nom on some mushrooms, boil down some bones, and all of the other things we talk about in the health & wellness world.In reality, the vast majority of people change their health gradually, step by step, and people like Justin are just trying to make those first few steps as easy as possible.So check out this episode to learn a lot more about Justin and the benefits of ancient trends like bone broth - it might just bring you one step closer to a healthier life. Topics Discussed In This Episode: The big problem that pushed Justin to start Kettle & Fire What it's like to work with the USDA & navigate all of the ridiculous bureaucracy 10,000-year-old "trends" like bone broth The big health challenge that pushed Justin to start Kettle & Fire How bone broth helps reduce inflammation in your body What it's like to work with the USDA & navigate all of the bureaucratic red tape The huge hassle, and mess that goes into making your own bone broth Overcoming one of the biggest problems when it comes to making healthy choices: compliance The huge SCAM behind the phrase "grass-fed" Why truly 100% grass-fed beef is better for you than factory farm slop Why having too many kids might be worse for the environment than eating a steak The ethics of farming plants VS farming animals The MOST harmful thing in the U.S. food system How you make a great bone broth at home, and why broth is the most ethical and safest way for vegans to transition back into animal foods If you really care about the environment, stop having sex   More about this episode.Watch it on YouTube THIS SHOW IS BROUGHT TO YOU BY:Kettle & Fire. This is the first 100% grass-fed, non-frozen, shelf stable bone broth on the market. I love bone broth for its portability, but this is the first I've found that you don't have to defrost (and won't go bad in your fridge if you forget about it).

A few years ago, I was walking past vendor tables at a biohacking conference and saw Debbie, one of today’s guests, working on people. I’m always down for some body work so I hopped on the massage table and she started moving this crazy vibrating wand all over my body – and it felt frickin’ amazing!If you’ve listened to the show before, you know that when I find something really cool I obsessively have to seek out the people behind it and share them with the world. So here we are, with three of the folks from Rapid Release Technology, creators of innovative physical therapy devices for both practitioners and personal use.Dr. Stanley Stanbridge, a former chiropractor, is the President and Inventor behind Rapid Release Technology. What started out as a few pieces of hardware slapped together in the garage has evolved into this life-changing technology.Jeff Maier is the Co-Founder and VP of Sales & Marketing, not to mention an accomplished software engineer and inventor himself.Debbie Record-Gomez is a practitioner and born healer who can perform miracles in minutes with a Rapid Release in her hands.Ridiculous FDA regulation stops these fine folks from saying much, so let me be the one to do it – Rapid Release rocks, and if you are experiencing any pain in your body or want to take a more holistic approach to healing your mind, you need to listen to this episode and then find a practitioner using Rapid Release near you. Topics Discussed In This Episode: How Dr. Stanbridge helped develop the original lightstim for pain almost two decades ago What vibration therapy is & how it can help relieve pain Creating the first generation of Rapid Release Technology in a garage What actually causes you to feel aches and pains in your body How we store emotional, mental, and spiritual trauma in our bodies Why we can’t really heal ourselves if we focus too much on just the physical or mental The insane number of people who have some kind of muscular or skeletal pain Giving your body the opportunity to heal itself The 3 things your muscles need to function How Dr. Stanbridge discovered this harmonious, healing frequency Why anyone can figure out how to use these magic little wands, even without extensive training How some deep tissue work actually causes injury and hurts the body long term How you can find a practitioner that uses Rapid Release near you Why Debbie uses the Rapid Release for her own self-care – and how you can too!

It’s insanely profitable to be wrong when it comes to health – of course, it’s not profitable for me or you, but perpetuating misinformation makes some shady executives out there loads of cash.And there are few things we are more misinformed about in the Western world than those amber waves of grain, which now make up 70% of all calories consumed by humans on the planet.But here’s the thing – grains were never part of the human diet until relatively recently, and certainly not in these ridiculous proportions. And when we remove wheat from our diet, the results are downright miraculous: weight melts away, inflammation disappears, migraines subside, some disease reverses entirely, and our gut stops feeling so crappy all the time.That was the idea behind the #1 New York Times bestselling book Wheat Belly, written by today’s guest Dr. William Davis, a cardiologist and one of the world’s foremost experts on wheat and gluten.Wheat Belly has grown into a movement of people hungry for food solutions that are healthy, delicious, and convenient. And Dr. Davis’ new book, Undoctored: Why Health Care Has Failed You and How You Can Become Smarter Than Your Doctor, takes the lessons learned through the worldwide Wheat Belly experience and adds new concepts, including how to harness the emerging power of crowd-sourced wisdom and state-of-the-art health technologies.We are living in the dawn of an age when the average person has access to information and the choice to regain their health and heal their body, without a doctor or the healthcare system... So what will  you choose? Topics Discussed In This Episode: How a family member’s death led Dr. Davis to start investigating wheat and gluten Why cholesterol testing is like a “beat up old ‘57 Chevy with rust up and down the sides and flat tires” – that is, outdated and virtually useless The insane profit in medical misinformation Why modern “Frankenwheat” is even more harmful than the grains of yore What humans should be eating to fuel their body The lies we’ve been told about animal fats How indifference to people’s health (and love of money) has corrupted healthcare, and why the REAL solutions to our health will come from real people like us, not the healthcare system Why just two slices of whole wheat bread is worse for you than six teaspoons of table sugar How our reliance on grains has inadvertently created a nation of addiction – and how BIG PHARMA is taking advantage of that fact Why many “gluten-free” foods are actually worse for you (and the gluten alternatives that are healthy) What happens chemically in your body when you eat grains and gluten The difference between A1 and A2 dairy Why no society in human history has ever thrived on (or sustained) a vegan diet   More about this episode.Watch it on YouTube THIS SHOW IS BROUGHT TO YOU BY:ORGANIFI.

This is the Longevity Now All-Stars mashup show, featuring six guests doing lightning round questions.I've been attending the Longevity Now Conference in Anaheim for years and have used it as a home base to record 10 of my 150 episodes over the past two years. In fact, a few of my very first shows were recorded there in 2016. The LNC is one of the most well-attended health and wellness conferences in the world, and with good reason. You'd be hard-pressed to find a more diverse and brilliant group of people. I've interviewed many of the esteemed speakers, vendors, and even a couple attendees.There’s so much packed into this monster of an episode and six incredibly unique perspectives, but there’s one thing everyone agrees on – SUGAR IS BAD! This extraordinary show covers an insanely wide variety of topics like being hit by lightning, seeing entities at John of God in Brazil, drinking your own pee as medicine, the power of Ayurvedic medicine, the benefits and risks of plant medicine, and just about every other health trend the world has ever known. This unique bonus episode includes appearances by the following guests:Zen Wyldflower Nishimura, one of the biodynamic chocolatiers behind ZenBunni and a purveyor of the best incense in the world.Sabrina Riccio, a medicine priestess & soulistic alchemist who transformed her life after a critical lightning strike.Scott Linde, a modern apothecary & the creator of Sun Potion.Aaron Alexander, a human body genius and the creator of Align Therapy.Sahara Rose, the best-selling author of the Idiot's Guide to Ayurveda and, as described by Deepak Chopra, “a leading voice for the millennial generation into the new paradigm shift.”Tero Isokauppila, the shroom dealer who founded Four Sigmatic #ONSHROOMS.Get ready to absorb the wisdom of some of Longevity Now’s best guests – all from the comfort of your ear buds. TOPICS DISCUSSED WITH ZEN WYLDFLOWER NISHIMURA: Being pushed to the edge by Truth Calkins The free & easy health trend that Zen is so excited about How David Wolf & Daniel Vitalis have changed Zen’s life since attended his first Longevity Now conference 14 years ago The hidden code of languages Why grounding yourself is so magical Putting the “mother” in Mother Nature The profound experience of daily meditation Being bamboozled by modern medicine Treating yourself with self-love – the most important thing – even when it’s hard  TOPICS DISCUSSED WITH SABRINA RICCIO: How ayahuasca helped Sabrina realign after she was STRUCK BY LIGHTNING (no joke) Overdosing on niacin & becoming a human monster Why a 3-day juice cleanse isn’t going to flush your system (& why you really need to go in to do the cleaning) One toxin that you should be avoiding… but that you probably put in your body every day The difficulty of overcoming overstimulation (especially with a marketer’s mindset) Navigating trauma using crystals & yoni eggs Why the things that are the grossest are often the things that you actually need All the words we use for God Cutting through religious stigma while still honoring where you’ve been How the divine feminine is holding space for the divine masculine Why the future isn’t male or female – it’s all-inclusive A spiritual surgery & 8-hour meditation with John of God Replenishing your light body Matching your vibration to your desires Why anything can be meditation Getting past the need to take care of everyone else before you take care of yourself Watching the blind be healed by John of God Embracing shadow work How Roger Waters changed Sabrina’s life Honoring the journey & trusting the process  TOPICS DISCUSSED WITH SCOTT LINDE: How Luke talked people like Scott into being his first few guests on this show at Longevity Now two years ago Why “natural” is a myth Prash, the good-for-everybody paste (including Luke’s live first impressions after eating 12 servings in one sitting) Creating a little apothecary in your own home When you put positivity & positive things into your body, it shines out through your eyes, skin, and hair Learning from incredible mentors like David Crow, David Wolf, & Ron Teeguarden Why it’s critically important to find people who are part of a lineage & learn from them Deprogramming yourself by listening when other people speak the truth What Scott has learned from 10+ years of Longevity Now Why service & work are the best exercise The full lowdown on what it’s like to make a pilgrimage to John of God (João de Deus) in Brazil Having a “multidimensional experience of your own body” The amazing things your body can do when you harmonize to the wavelength of music  TOPICS DISCUSSED WITH AARON ALEXANDER: Why the physical structure of the body is mind bogglingly incredible The sense that you didn’t even know you had: Interoception Feeling the deep & innate senses of your inner body Why more doing does NOT equal more results – you need a balance between doing & being W

Which diet is best for humans, animals, and the planet? This is a question we will perhaps never fully answer. I can’t resist the temptation to try, and this episode endeavors to do just that.I am continually trying to learn more about what I’m putting in, on, and near my body. I love learning about the way things work. That’s why I recently found myself at a Belcampo Farms (@belcampomeatco) Meat Camp, learning about where my most of my animal foods come from, to make sure that I have some connection to the land, people, and animals involved. I wanted to meet the meat I eat, and the farmers producing it.While I was at Belcamp Farms, I met #DianaRodgers (@sustainabledish), a #realfood Licensed Registered Dietitian Nutritionist living on a working #organicfarm west of Boston. She also runs an #activenutrition practice, where she helps people recover their health through diet, and hosts The Sustainable Dish Podcast.We really hit it off at the farm, so I had to have Diana on the show to discuss all things meat, and her upcoming film project: “Kale vs. Cow: The Case for Better Meat.” At a time when many in the health and environmental fields call for a world without meat, #kalevscow makes a case for better meat – and shows how eliminating animals from our #foodsystem could cause more harm than good.While this episode takes a frail firm stand for eating meat, I don’t take a position on other people’s dietary choices – you can eat a box of rocks for for dinner if that’s what makes you happy. This episode isn’t about right/wrong good/bad. It’s about zooming out to take an open-minded perspective on the human, animal, and planet relationship. What makes us all thrive, and most of all, what is the most natural way to live in our modern, disconnected urban environments.I also think it’s important to consider and understand the impact of our food buying and consumption… because sometimes the things sold to us as “better” alternatives, like #kale or #soy, can have devastating consequences.How many animals die to turn a plot of land into a kale pasture? How many salmon lose their habitat because water is diverted for irrigation? What happens to the bears who depend on those salmon for their diet?What is the math of clearing land to grow a single crop VS raising animals with sensible farming practices?Just something to chew on.

Topics Discussed In This Episode: Diana’s farm in Massachusetts How industrial farming has killed America When everyone in America grew food Not being obsessed with food (what a lovely feeling it is!) Ancestral health & the paleo diet Luke’s love / grossed out relationship with eating animals The difference between Diana’s farm & a factory farm Why eating something isn’t necessarily good or evil, for any animal The uncomfortable reality that everything gets eaten, even people The biomimicry process on farms, from beginning to end Croppable land VS uncroppable land (like central California) How humans invented the modern cow and sheep Taking bias & ulterior motives out of our food research Why people get emotionally attached to their diets The potential health risks involved with a strictly vegan diet Why the recommended dietary allowance of protein is actually half of what the average American should consume Chewing your food Valuing life   More about this episode.Watch it on YouTube THIS SHOW IS BROUGHT TO YOU BY: BIOSTRAP.

This episode is a live recording of my conversation with Fern Olivia, creator of Thyroid Yoga®, on her talk show Sensual Intelligence on Focus TV. Fern spends her time interviewing some of the most influential leaders in conscious lifestyle to learn about their most intimate rituals for maintaining the irrevocable partnership with their soul.Fern asked me how I keep me inner flame glowing brightly and bring more spice to my life through my six senses; the tools, go-to remedies, potions, alchemy, and practices I apply to my love life.I get extremely vulnerable about the experiences, and relationships that shaped me and made me who I am today… and the long journey (that I’m still on) towards forming a healthy relationship with myself and evolving into my Divine Masculine. My sensual and sexual awakening isn't something I usually talk about publicly, so I'm really excited to share this intimate conversation with you, as terrifying as it might be.If you're looking to fully accept yourself and truly see yourself, this conversation may be the ignition you've been searching for.–Luke Topics Discussed In This Episode: Luke’s story Opening your soul to the next level of intimacy Teachers & mentors appearing right when you’re ready Creating space within your relationship to yourself, in order to add someone else when you’re ready.

When _____ happens, I will be happy.Have you ever had that thought?Kyle Cease was a standup comedian for 20 years (starting when he was 12) until, at the height of everything, he started feeling fear and anxiety about going on stage.In his mind, if that recognition went away, he would go away.A lot of us end up defining ourselves by something external – our audience, our money, our approval – but nothing else can define you; “We’re just this collection of shit that believes who we are is the whole story.”So Kyle stopped doing college shows, clubs, and Comedy Central specials. He started combining comedy and transformation – and he makes it accessible to everyone.It’s not just biohackers who want to optimize their life, and it’s not just the Silicon Valley entrepreneurs who want to find another way to transform their mindset. There’s a mainstream public who wants to learn and change – and they can’t afford to drop $10,000 on something, even if it’s an incredible product.Kyle is a breath of fresh air (or a slap in the face) for a lot of 'Hollywood Hopefuls' and the entertainment industry in general – but his insight is something this community desperately needs.In this episode, Kyle shares his comedic formula of personal growth and evolution, in a powerfully fun and accessible way. Topics Discussed In This Episode: Consciousness surpassing the highest level of being that you achieve How to connect to your higher self Struggling with the law of attraction, manifesting, & the classical sense of prayer Spending time alone & being okay with your discomfort The difficulty of both scarcity & abundance Combining comedy & transformation Pricing your services to help the most people, not what you can get away with How to communicate from your whole body, not just your voice The patterns of thinking & behavior that develop as a result of trauma Putting yourself in situations where you’re over your own head in order to gain the most growth and expansion Making it normal (not exceptional) for our life to be miraculous Becoming aware of The Why in  your mission The powerful benefits of meditation as they relate to creativity   More about this episode.Watch it on YouTube THIS SHOW IS BROUGHT TO YOU BY:Athletic Greens. 11 supplements in 1!

I worked in the entertainment industry for 17 years, and I grew jaded to being starstruck… but this episode is a dream come true for me. I got to sit down with Byron Katie, whose work and story helped me pick myself up & transform my life.Katie, creator of The Work, is driven by a single mission: teaching people how to end their own suffering.Katie found herself at the bottom of a ten-year spiral when she realized that when she believed her stressful thoughts, she suffered, but that when she questioned them, she didn't suffer – and that this is true for every human being.Now, Katie guides people through a powerful process of inquiry she calls The Work, in which anyone can find their stressful beliefs about life, other people, or themselves & radically shift them. The result is a life changed forever.The Work is an astonishingly simple process – as you’ll hear in this episode – accessible to anyone at any age and from any background; all you need is an open mind.Even from the darkest depths of suffering and loss, anyone can learn to trace unhappiness to its source and deal with it there – trust me.Take these tools, open your mind, and set yourself free.–Luke Topics Discussed In This Episode: How Luke found Katie (after being dragged there by his father) When Katie hit rock bottom How a chance run-in with a cockroach completely changed Katie’s (and Luke’s) life Coming to terms with the fact that the world is a projected image of our thoughts Our motivation to ease the world’s suffering Katie gets labeled enlightened – but she says, “I’m just someone who knows the difference between what hurts and what doesn’t.” Everything in life is awesome… if you choose to frame it that way with your thinking Sparing ourselves from the desire for approval Our futile attempts to argue with reality… and why we always lose The irony of struggling to win love and approval Why it’s called “The Work” Luke gets completely raw & vulnerable about some resentment he’s working through right now, going through the 4 questions & turnarounds of The Work to show you how the magic happens The life-changing work done at Katie’s Turnaround House A Mind At Home With Itself, Katie’s commentary on the Diamond Sutra, one of the great spiritual texts of the world   More about this episode.Watch it on YouTube THIS SHOW IS BROUGHT TO YOU BY:ALTERRA PURE.

Tara Mackey has a fascinating story full of peaks and valleys, shifting between periods of abject suffering and astounding success.Today, Tara is standing atop a shining peak: she is the CEO + Founder of The Organic Life, the CEO + Founder of Genetix Skincare, a soul singer, and the #1 best-selling author of “Cured by Nature” and “WILD Habits.”But, as most good stories unfortunately do, it all began in a pretty dark valley.Tara was born with drugs in her body – very literally – and into a home filled with abuse and… well, more drugs.She didn’t fall into using hard drugs, but she was isolated and depressed and struggling to cope with her mother’s addiction. Tara’s grandparents brought her to a psychiatrist and, within 10 minutes, she had her first diagnosis and her first prescription – Lithium. The first of many.By the time Tara was 24, she was on 14 different prescription drugs – then she reached her breaking point.Tara successfully quit all 14 prescriptions cold turkey (which she doesn’t recommend) and started healing her chronic illnesses holistically, a move that drastically changed her life. Now Tara is turning these tragedies into her greatest gifts, converting her suffering into compassion like an emotional alchemist.Tara replaced her addiction with WILDhabits, healing herself from the inside out – and if that works for a body going in and out of the hospital on a monthly basis due to drug complications, can you imagine what it will do for yours?– Luke Topics Discussed In This Episode: Being born a crack baby Detoxing Reading Tony Robbins as a seven-year-old Why addiction is a family disease, affecting everyone around you Codependence Controlling what you can control (and letting the universe take care of everything else) Why we usually keep repeating the same patterns until some pain forces us to make a change Superficial, outward honesty VS being honest with yourself The overmedication of children Pain & trauma getting misdiagnosed as mental illness The difference between fact and opinion “Shitty life disorder” Diagnosing problems as disorders Negative drug interactions that put Tara in the hospital on a monthly basis, for years Why Tara doesn’t recommend quitting cold turkey Controlling your relationship with other people Why interior design is so powerful Embracing chiropractors The WILD method: Willingness, Intuition, Love, & Discipline Using your story to make the world a better place   More about this episode. THIS SHOW IS BROUGHT TO YOU BY:ATHLETIC GREENS. 11 supplements in 1!

We all go on our own journeys with food.I’ve gone through quite a few phases in my journey – from hardcore vegetarian to hardcore raw protein to, now, something more balanced and less inflammatory.Now I don’t care what you eat – you can eat a sofa if you want – but a lot of people mindlessly eat more than their fair share, a lot of the time. That doesn’t help you, and it doesn’t help the world.The key to finding the optimal diet for your body is appreciating your food, and being more conscious about when it serves you and when it doesn’t.Of course, we live in a fast-paced world. Finding and preparing the best food doesn't always feel easy – and that’s where today’s guest, Jasmine Hemsley, comes in.Jasmine is a wellbeing expert and creator of the East by West, a modern take on Ayurvedic principles & recipes for today’s busy world. Beginning with a pop up cafe in London, East by West is now a cookbook containing 140 delicious (and simple) recipes that focus on using the ancient Ayurvedic philosophy of eating to nourish, sustain, and repair.The Vedic lifestyle isn’t about strict rules or regulations, and it’s really a lot less stressful than most diets – it’s simply a philosophy for living well that emphasizes bringing balance into your lifestyle.Ready for the ultimate mind-body balance?–Luke Topics Discussed In This Episode: Becoming more conscious about food Growing up with a Filipino mother & English father Creating a healthy family bond around food Coming up with SO MANY amazing recipes Utilitarian eating VS being a foodie The creative process Combining the Paleo-Primal way of eating with the Ayurvedic diet Gut health Cooking tasty meals that include organ meat Why some people need animal protein in their diet Appreciating your food Where hunger begins & cravings end Emotional eating Sound bathing & the effects of sound on your blood Marrying East + West The nutritional difference between some cold & hot foods Meat as medicine The science of living Simultaneous & incredible inventions throughout history (How did different civilizations build pyramids at the same time, without contact?!) Vedic architecture The proper pace for eating (“There are no teeth in your tummy”) Food combining; it’s better to have good digestions and a bad diet than it is to have bad digestion and a good diet   More about this episode.Watch it on YouTube THIS SHOW IS BROUGHT TO YOU BY:ORGANIFI.

I didn’t start meditating to be cool – I started meditating to save my life. By 26 years old I loathed my very existence, and was trapped in a downward spiral of self-destruction. I’ve tried numerous methods of finding peace of mind using various practices of meditation, but Vedic meditation has been my Holy Grail.I also know that meditation is one of the things you all are hungry to learn more about, so I sat down with Light Watkins, an author and Vedic teacher who wants to empower the everyman to meditate.To help, Light wrote one of the best books I’ve ever read on the topic: Bliss More: How to Succeed in Meditation Without Really Trying. You can think of Bliss More as the meditation version of the The 4-Hour Workweek: lean, effective, and at home on a bio hacker’s bookshelf near you.Some meditation practices and techniques are very specific and rigid, both physically and mentally. This is what a lot of people think of when they hear the word “meditation,” and in all honesty, those practices can be a struggle for the amateur who sincerely wants to make a daily practice out of meditation.If you want to sit with your legs crossed on the floor for an hour, that’s fine! But that’s NOT necessary to achieve the best or most efficient results from meditation – you can’t focus your way to bliss.Vedic meditation, on the other hand, is about reshaping the relationship with the mind to effortlessly experience fully-awake restful consciousness and its many physiological benefits.“The mind is not the enemy. The mind is not the obstacle. The mind is actually your ally. The mind is noble.”–Luke Topics Discussed In This Episode: Urban escape room & evasion course How to succeed in meditation (without really trying) Changing the conversation around meditation Why Light’s book is accessible for the everyman & experienced practitioners Reframing writing as a practice Dealing with criticism (& laughing at negative reviews on Yelp) How Light (a young man from Alabama) first got into meditation in the 90s Experiencing Light’s first “meditation orgasm” Thom Knoles, a maharishi (or pre-eminent master-teacher) of Vedic Meditation Why meditation is only effective when it’s a daily practice Becoming a good teacher (“You don’t have to beat Michael Jordan to coach him to a championship.”) Training in India Listening to our intuitive voice Your energetic economy Having many choices VS knowing the right choice (for you) The early, rocky stages of a meditation practice Stress relief & meditation Fun fact: we all have the same number of thoughts Appreciating beauty Calming the fight or flight reaction Why Light keeps his services accessible and affordable How Light prays   More about this episode.Watch it on YouTube THIS SHOW IS BROUGHT TO YOU BY:FOUR SIGMATIC.

Do you want access to every thought that could ever be thought, every dream that could ever be dreamt, and every manifestation that could ever happen?Of course you do. And you can.Dr. Donny Epstein is the creator of EpiEnergetics, the evolutionary self-help and healing methodologies that are praised by the likes of Tony Robbins and Ken Wilber and sought out celebrities, politicians, CEOs, thought leaders, professional athletes and other people seeking the extraordinary through his knowledge of the dynamics of energy and information from multi-dimensional realms.The basic idea of EpiEnergetics is that “around all energy is information,” or a field of consciousness. So if you bring energy into any system – our bodies, our relationships, a business – the system improves, effortlessly… unless there’s not enough energy.All of our distress and cognitive dysfunction comes about because we don’t have enough energy. The reality is that you don’t have to change your job, your relationship, or your circumstances to change your life – if you change the way you use energy, you will have a different experience and a different impact.Ordinary experiences lead to an ordinary life. Extraordinary experiences lead to an extraordinary life. And an extraordinary experience doesn’t even require an extraordinary person – it requires an ordinary person using an extraordinary source of energy.Are you ready access more energy and experience the extraordinary?–Luke Topics Discussed In This Episode: Everything in reality is a function of a binary code of energy and information The magic of manifestation What EpiEnergetics means Experiencing reality differently (and then getting drugged) Working across the street from Ken Wilber Benefitting from the different levels of consciousness Spirituality & experiencing the divine as a reward for adding value to others The lack of spirituality in (some) religious structures Accessing intelligence Spiritual escapism The “Network” - a spine-based, life-enhancing natural healing method The relationship between emotional intelligence & physiology Why ‘immune system’ is an antiquated term The purpose of an emotion Developing children into thinkers ‘Having cancer’ VS ‘cancering’ Moving from the lower mind to the upper mind Your thoughts & your nature Addiction, reward, pain, & certainty Transpersonal vigilance (watch Donny discuss it more here) The purpose of soul Taking care of those who’ve lost their way Expanding the model of healing The difference between a psychotic and a genius   More about this episode.Watch it on YouTube THIS SHOW IS BROUGHT TO YOU BY:ORGANIFI.

In this episode, our guest is Matt Maruca, Founder of Ra Optics.At 18-years-old, Matt is, by far, the youngest guest we’ve had on the show (and possibly the world’s youngest biohacker). But don’t let his age fool you – this guy is smart. While in high school, he learned more about optimizing health than most people do in a lifetime, and he gave the machine that is his body a complete overhaul.When you look at nature, every other species has a lifestyle that is dictated by their environment, and they are in harmony with their environment.But humans have changed their environment, resulting in a fundamental disconnect from what they need to nourish their bodies. As a result, we are constantly pursuing the newest health trend – but the fact that they are trends, the fact that they are always changing, proves that none of them are actually the answer.For years, Matt found himself in this trap: he chased the newest trends and diets just so that he could stop feeling like crap. He exhausted every popular food program available, but nothing worked (of course).Then Matt really started digging in. He started following thought leaders like our friend Jack Kruse and asking big questions: How is food used in our body, on a chemical level? How does seasonal eating play into things? Geographic eating? What is light’s role in all of this? Temperature’s? What are these mitochondria things and why isn’t anyone talking about them?It’s time to use some common sense, holla at nature, and fix the dysfunction in our bodies.–Luke Topics Discussed In This Episode: What mitochondria are, how they run our cells, & why you’ll die if they aren’t doing their job The fallacy of authority The problem with “health trends” and fad diets Struggling with migraines (once for three weeks straight) How Jack Kruse, Matt’s mentor, saved his life Dr. Douglas Wallace, “The Galileo of Biology” How our man-made environment is damaging our bodies Common sense & nature How to figure out what YOU should be eating Repairing mitochondrial function Being homo domesticus Using technology to mimic natural environments & fix our bodies The cold factor & the cold thermogenesis protocol Why infrared light is so cool The restorative power of darkness Benefits of sex & the problem with ejaculating too much The sun doesn’t cause cancer – mitochondrial dysfunction does Humans are the first animal to un-ground themselves & remove themselves from the sun   More about this episode. THIS SHOW IS BROUGHT TO YOU BY:Athletic Greens. 11 supplements in 1!

My spiritual practice and transformative journey has been all about recontextualizing my reality. When you change your perception and step away from “the way things are supposed to be,” you start to understand that they already and always are. And when you take that line of thought and apply it to our bodies and treating disease… well, things can get pretty crazy from our limited view of the world.In this episode, I sit down with Chris Chen, a licensed acupuncturist who has spent the last decade studying with Grandmaster Sung Baek, 75th Grandmaster of the Dong Han healing clan, a Korean Taoist tradition stretching back over 2,500 years.We don’t really know the true origin of these ancient Eastern practices, but like some of the other ancient technologies we’ve discussed on the show, such as Kundalini, it inarguably changes you – they’re powerful and they work. That’s why these technologies manage to stick around long enough to become ancient. (And you should see Chris – something must be working because he looks incredible.)Honestly, I thought this conversation would be all about acupuncture and what Chinese herbs to take, but we end up exploring a whole lot more:How were these ancient technologies (or, in some cases, truths) originally discovered? How is food a form of data? How can you surrender to reality and still contribute in a meaningful and positive way? What the hell is Qi Gong and what does it do to you? What’s up with pulse reading?Sustaining the kinetic energy machine of your body is actually pretty easy when you get down to it – we just over complicate everything with our own thoughts and feelings.What’s new?–Luke Topics Discussed In This Episode: Finding and studying with Grandmaster Sung Baek The moment Chris dedicated the rest of his life to studying Eastern healing The terminal condition called life Daoism & naturalism The profound lessons that Chris has received from his teacher Why your digestive tract is outside of you, exposed to the universe The Eastern attitude towards food Food as a form of data Nature’s perfect design The history of acupuncture (and the difference between the sacred medicine and the secular medicine) The body-brain connection Recontextualizing reality How you can surrender to reality & still contribute in a meaningful and positive way The philosophy of activism When Chris (almost) stopped meditating What Qi Gong is and what it does to you How pulse diagnosis works   More about this episode. THIS SHOW IS BROUGHT TO YOU BY:FOUR SIGMATIC.

I know this is a touchy topic, and this episode is not about telling you how or what to think – I am not having this conversation to be pro-vaccine or anti-vaccine. I am pro-question and pro-clarity, and I am here to learn all sides of the story and offer a different perspective.That’s why I sat down with Del Bigtree, the Producer of Vaxxed – a must-see documentary for anyone who will potentially have kids and wants to stay informed. I sat up late one night watching the documentary, and as the story unfolded, it just made me so angry.There’s just so much intentional misinformation out there on this topic, and on this documentary.Did you know that Andrew Wakefield – the doctor who lost his license after being tried for publishing a fraudulent paper in 1998 linking the MMR vaccine and autism – never actually came out against vaccines? Did you know that Dr. Wakefield was one of 13 co-authors of that report, yet he was the only one tried for fraud (and he just so happened to be the only one digging further into vaccine safety)? Did you know that Vaxxed isn’t an anti-vaxxer movie?It’s insane how much we don’t know – and that’s why we need people out there who aren’t afraid to ask some big questions.Always be skeptical. Arm yourself with knowledge.–Luke Topics Discussed In This Episode: Learning how to ask questions, think more critically, and decide for ourselves Producing a debate between Monsanto’s head of toxicology Dr. Donna Farmer and GMO activist Jeffrey Smith How Del first learned about the CDC whistleblower, Dr. William Thompson The scientific fraud and cover up surrounding MMR vaccine studies Why Dr. Thompson is the “cleanest whistleblower you’re ever going to have” The fine line between being an advocate for truth and driving yourself insane Why the vaccine debate seems to be different from any other controversial topic How some people on the Left seem to be trying to shut down free speech these days Why Del considers himself a consumer advocate Getting kicked out of the Tribeca film festival Robert De Niro’s role in the story Donald Trump & vaccines The mandated adult vaccine program that’s in the works 75% of advertising on television comes from Big Pharma Why science is the one place where consensus is meaningless Big Pharma’s stranglehold over the vaccine conversation and lobbying The “religion” around doctors, medical knowledge, and vaccines Why a child in America is 70% more likely to die before adulthood than the other 20 richest nations in the world The first generation of children in America who probably will not live to be as old as their parents The BIG change in vaccinations that happened in 1986 (that made it impossible to sue due to injury from vaccines) The autoimmune crisis in this country The scientific method for evaluating the safety of a drug – which ZERO childhood vaccines have ever done The people who are killed by vaccines annually Playing devil’s advocate The 15 childhood vaccines that have NEVER been studied for a link to autism What’s wrong with the “herd immunity” argument Del’s dream of a truly independent vaccine safety research organization to hold Big Pharma accountable How our species is evolving backwards The difference you can make as an individual – not part of a herd  More about this episode.Watch it on YouTube THIS SHOW IS BROUGHT TO YOU BY:Health IQ.

This episode is a long time coming – I’m sitting down with the catalyst of the Life Stylist podcast and my partner in crime at the School of Style, Lauren Messiah. (Oh... and we also dated for exactly five years.)As a self-described “perpetual not-fitter-inner,” Lauren struggles to find a tribe of her own – but she’s always had style, her one constant.If you dress the right way, you can fit in anywhere... but if you really own it, you can carve out your own space. That’s exactly what Lauren does, and that’s what makes her such an incredible entrepreneur.As a personal stylist, Lauren is dedicated to helping women fundamentally change their relationship with clothing so that they can take out the BS and completely transform themselves, from the outside in. What does your wardrobe communicate to other people? Hell, what does it communicate to yourself? How does our style affect our identity? Our energy?It’s not about being cute or sexy – it’s about getting what you want and living your best life!–Luke Topics Discussed In This Episode: How Lauren kicked my ass and got me to start the podcast Our five-year relationship and multiple attempts at couples therapy (including a stay at the Onsite Workshops) How we’ve evolved since ending our relationship Lauren’s first fashion memory Being a perpetual not-fitter-inner Growing up multiracial & feeling like you don’t have a tribe Using style to carve out her own space Being a voice for people who feel misunderstood Going to fashion school and then not becoming a designer Inadequacies in education Moving from the east coast to the west coast Becoming a stylist and finding the School of Style Blogging about fashion in 2005 Why Lauren stopped celebrity styling & started personal styling Being a servant VS serving Style being a huge pain point for so many people How a job with Nickelodeon changed Lauren’s life trajectory Clothing as a way of communicating your values Lauren’s evolving brand & relationship with style Living your best life Putting yourself in badass mode Being the Oprah of fashion The science of getting dressed How men can represent their true self on the outside Lauren’s current self-help journey   More about this episode.Watch it on YouTube THIS SHOW IS BROUGHT TO YOU BY:ORGANIFI.

What motivates you? If you're like most people it's one of two things:    A) The avoidance of pain B) The pursuit of pleasure    This unique double-interview, narrative format show was motivated by the former. Pain. Lots of pain, for a long, long time- mostly in my lower back and right hip.   It all started 25 years ago when I injured my hip drunk-hiking in Angeles National Forest. I used to pack booze into the woods with my homies, get hammered, then try to find our way back out. It was the best of times, and well, you know the rest of the line.    At any rate, rather than having my hip looked at by an actual doctor, I had my pot dealing, boarding house manager Bob (who was incidentally, a spitting image of Steven Seagal) knock my displaced hip back into the socket with a giant rubber mallet.    Suffice to say, that method of medical treatment was not only ineffective but left my hip injured, which eventually put a strain on my S.I. joint. Add to that initial injury 15 more years of hauling massive musical equipment around the world while playing in rock bands (mostly also done while intoxicated), and you've got me at the current age of 47 years old, in fairly constant back pain.    Over the past 21 years that I've been into alternative health, biohacking and all ways and means by which to heal your body, mind, and soul, I've tried anything and everything I've ever heard of to improve my back and put an end to the nagging pain. The list is far too long to include here, but I'd dare say that I've tried just about anything that you can think of to fix it, short of straight-up surgery.    While I have had moments of reprieve here and there through the application of various modalities, nothing has ever really helped in a meaningful way.    Over the years, however, I have heard over and over again about the healing power of stem cell therapy, and have met many owners of injured, painful human bodies who have experienced nothing short of miraculous healing experiences using this increasingly popular natural-medicine intervention.    Due to this fact, I've had the words 'Stem Cell Treatment' on my yearly vision boards and journals, in hopes that someday I would be so situated as to try this emerging technology on my back.    Well, as fate would have it finally in February 2018, the stars finally aligned and I was able to travel to beautiful Park City Utah to undergo dual treatment under the care of doctors Harry Adelson and Amy Killen at Docere Clinics.    Dr. Harry worked his magic on my lower back, hip, spine, and shoulder, while Dr. Amy focused her injections on my face, scalp, and penis. Yes, you read that correctly. Why would I have them put there? You'll have to listen to this episode to find out.    This extraordinary show follows my entire journey from LA to Utah, in cars, on the airplane, to a local hot spring, and right into the operating room where the two interviews took place, mere moments before I went under anesthesia and underwent the procedure.    This will no doubt be a trip you won't forget as you ride co-pilot along with me on my latest experiment to find the ultimate solution to this long-standing physical challenge.    If you know anyone with persistent pain, or someone who's looking for safe alternatives to anti-aging and sexual optimization therapies, please do them a favor and share this episode with them now.    Here's to new discoveries in health and healing,   Luke  Topics Discussed On Today's EpisodeA full report of my journey from LA to Utah:  At the airport On the plane Off the plane and reporting from Uber At the secret hot springs with podcast listener Kia Sorensen, how she became a listener and her 3 top recommendations for keeping healthy, spiritually and emotionally centered The day after arrival, and off to Docere Clinic Interview with Dr. Harry Adelson: The ABCs of stem cells, and how it's the body’s own natural drugstore  What’s the deal with FDA’s paranoia?    The risks involved with stem cell therapy The conditions most often improved with this type of therapy “A busy doctor means a bad doctor”: Dr. Harry’s no-repeat business model Aftercare therapy, and the importance of bodywork, mobility and healthy lifestyle changes Neurodegenerative diseases and how injections into the brain work towards cell growth factor  Other fringing benefits of stem cell therapy  The difference between fat-derived cells and bone marrow cells  PRP therapy explained  Autologous Vs. Allogeneic: Understanding the derivatives of stem cells, where they come from if not from your body, and the U.S. regulations around it What's with the tourism factor when it comes to stem cell therapy, and how the U.S. differs from international approach  What are exosomes, and how they are made  Umbil

Welcome to the third and final installment of our Water Wars Trilogy, featuring Mukhunde Singh of www.livespringwater.com. Mukhunde is the man responsible for making sure I have a consistent supply of the most pristine spring water on earth, delivered right to my kitchen in LA every two weeks. He's been dedicated to his mission of educating people about the numerous benefits of drinking unprocessed water, directly from nature for over a decade.The reason I have chosen to deliver such a focused podcast trilogy is that after over a decade of personal research and development, I have decided to drink natural, wild, unadulterated spring water almost exclusively. However, in recent months there have been thousands of fake news web articles and television reports about the supposed 'dangers' of people drinking such water. The vast majority of recent media stories have positioned the practice of drinking unprocessed spring water as a 'new, dangerous trend' as if humans have not managed to survive on the planet for the past two million years drinking it.Many of these unfair, and erroneous media attacks have been directed at Mukhunde personally, so I needed to do my part to share his side of the story with the world. Having known him for many years, and having much first-hand experience of his pure heart and high integrity level, it was critical to me that I help secure his reputation as an upstanding and conscious entrepreneur.As a proud advocate of our fundamental human right to drink whatever water we chose to, and in support of our free market economy, I felt it more important than ever to give Mukhande an opportunity to share our mutual passion for living spring water with The Life Stylist Podcast audience. In this episode, you will learn how Mukhande took his love of water and turned it into a thriving, and unique business, and why he believes real spring water is the superior choice for personal and environmental well-being. He’s made a substantial positive impact not only on my health but on the health of dozens of friends and family members that have converted from processed, chemically treated water, to his delicious, lab-tested, entirely natural spring water.If you have not yet heard Water Wars Parts One and Two, featuring Daniel Vitalis and Seth Leaf Pruzansky, make sure to jump back in the feed and give those a thorough listen. The entire trilogy contains over six hours of life-changing content, 100% dedicated to celebrating and discovering the great mysteries of water.Please do someone you love a favor by sharing these profoundly impactful episodes with them. Now more than ever, we humans need to claim our divine birthright to drink water as nature intended it.Now go get hydrated!Luke Topics Discussed On This PART THREE Episode:    The meaning behind his name, and his first experience with spring water  How Mukhande took his love of water and turned it into a thriving, and unique business How most spring waters on the market are processed, and what that means  The story behind his first water collection as a business  His journey in procuring water rights Why he believes real spring water is the superior choice for personal and environmental well-being His business model, the challenges and cost of growing the business The reason behind why most water available to us is processed  The mainstream effort to discourage our autonomy  The unfair and erroneous media attacks that have been directed at Mukhunde personally Best resource to locate springs in U.S. The new delivery locations for the LA area, and his goals for expanding nationally Lifestyle recommendations   More about this episode...Watch on YouTube Listen to Pt1 & Pt2  THIS SHOW IS BROUGHT TO YOU BY:AMPCOIL.

Welcome to the second installment of our Water Wars trilogy, featuring Seth Leaf Pruzansky of Tourmaline Springs. In this episode, our guest delivers a profoundly spiritual, yet practical point of view of water, one of natures greatest gifts to all life on earth.Have you ever wondered what water is, where it comes from, and why it's so crucial to our survival? Are you aware that your body and brain are mostly water? If we are made primarily of water, then wouldn't it stand to reason that our top health priority should be learning everything we can about this substance, and how to find the best possible source?When it comes to the water we drink and bathe in, there are thousands of choices, and most of them come with considerable health risks. Tap water is subject to endless sources of toxic contamination, despite the various forms of filtration available, and much of the bottled water on the market comes with challenges of its own - which in most cases puts it in the same lower class of safety as tap water, not to mention limitations of sustainability and adverse environmental impact.After over a decade of personal research and development, I have chosen almost exclusively to drink genuinely natural, wild, unadulterated spring water. However, in recent months there have been thousands of web articles and television reports about the supposed 'dangers' of people drinking such water.The vast majority of reports have positioned the practice of drinking unprocessed spring water as a 'new, dangerous trend' as if humans have not managed to survive on the planet for the past two million years drinking it.In light of much recent fake news propaganda put forth by the mainstream media, I've taken it upon myself to tell the other side of the story about what I believe to be nature's most significant, and mysterious gift to all life on earth. It can be argued, that after oxygen, water is in fact, the root of all life.When I set out to provide listeners of the show with a comprehensive guide to all things water, I had to track down Seth Leaf Pruzansky. Seth is one of America's most committed advocates for consuming natural spring water, using his company Tourmaline Springs as a vehicle by which to share his love of water with the very fortunate residents of the East Coast.In this episode, Seth is going to do nothing short of blowing your mind with his vast and intimate knowledge of this mysterious liquid we call water.Please do someone you love a favor by sharing this profoundly impactful podcast with them. Now more than ever, we humans need to claim our divine birthright to drink water as nature intended it.Now go get hydrated!Luke Topics Discussed On This PART TWO Episode:   How Seth got into spring water and started his own company  What is TDS and why a water lower in minerals is a better option  How the geographic location and the type of rock spring comes from determines the overall quality of that water  The difference between surface water and ground water  Why it’s important to lab test the water in some cases to make sure it’s safe  Primary water, and why it’s the most absolutely pure water on the planet  The fact that the Earth actually makes water The pros & cons of tap, filtered and bottled water The environmental destruction from corporations, and how it will take conscious entrepreneurship from small businesses to change the course The challenges his company faced with regulations to bring unadulterated water to market How the water industry affects the environment: the good, the bad and the ugly  How Seth discovered how to make non toxic plastic bottles for his company Tourmaline Spring  How you tell a specific spring is safe  Why the media has recently attacked the spring water industry  How there’s no such thing as free water Lifestyle recommendations  More about this episode Watch on YouTube If you missed Part One w/ Daniel Vitalis, click here.  THIS SHOW IS BROUGHT TO YOU BY:ALTERRA PURE.

It can be argued, that after oxygen, water is in fact, the root of all life.When I set out to provide listeners of the show with a comprehensive guide to all things water, my first stop was Daniel Vitalis. Daniel has been one of the most dedicated advocates for natural spring water in the health industry for two decades and has devoted much of his work to preserving and promoting this fundamental, and sacred human right.Once I got into this interview with Daniel, it quickly became evident that not only would his contribution to the conversation be longer than the usual one hour (this single episode alone clocks in at just over 3 hours), but it would also be necessary to include additional voices within the water industry itself. As a result of the overwhelming contribution of Daniel’s point of view, I decided to dedicate three entire episodes to the topic by creating a comprehensive trilogy, called Water Wars. This episode is the first in a series of three shows on this topic.You can look forward to two more mind-blowing episodes coming this Friday with Seth Leaf Pruzansky of Tourmaline Springs and Mukhande Singh of Live Spring Water, who each share their unique perspective as founders of the only two US companies that sell genuinely natural, unprocessed spring water.Please do someone you love a favor by sharing this profoundly impactful podcast with them. Now more than ever, we humans need to claim our divine birthright to drink water as nature intended it.Now go get hydrated!Luke Topics Discussed On This PART ONE Episode:   Daniel and I catch up as he shares his observations from the past 10 years of foraging, his podcast, and the new new direction of his work The non-cohesive world of ecology stewardship, and how environmentalists & hunter-gatherers are at odds with each other How GMO and glyphosate spraying affects our wild food sources Wild vs. Farmed, and why establishments can’t sell game meats Fake news and all the false propaganda lately about natural spring water: why is the media attacking it, why is the media so afraid of it? Are the big beverage corporations behind the media’s effort to discredit this very natural practice of drinking water from the Earth Is water actually alive? Does it have consciousness? What’s this energy we know as water? Where does Spring water actually comes from? What is raw or living water? How filtering water has its pros and cons The chemistry behind why water tastes flat The hydrological cycle of water, and the difference between well water, aquifer and spring water What are the possible dangers of drinking spring water? How to vet the spring The FDA lobbying to call tap and well water “spring” water. Turns out that most of the bottled water you drink is not from a spring, it’s never even seen a spring The environmental impact of the bottle water industry The health impacts of drinking plastic water Are some plastic bottles worse than others for you and the environment? What is wrong with tap water and can we trust the government that sell it to us? Do fracking chemicals, and nuclear waste and fluoride end up in our bodies? Pharmaceutical drugs and how they don’t always get filtered out from municipal water We focus on fluoride and find that it might not be so great for your teeth and could in fact have deleterious results in your health in general What about the risks of shower

This is a story about how our host, Marcus Antebi changed my life.The year was 2010. I was a vegetarian at the time, beginning to travel from LA to NYC more frequently for my work in the fashion industry. I remember the sheer terror of landing at JFK, usually at night, starving, then taxiing into the city to start the hunt for something made of plants to eat. It's hard to imagine now, but a mere ten years ago it was almost impossible to find organic restaurants in Manhattan, let alone something vegan or vegetarian. Sources were scarce, and it was even harder to locate something green to eat after a grueling flight across the country had sapped my veggie-hunting energy into oblivion.Then on one of those trips, as my good fortune would have it, I happened to be staying at a hotel on the Lower East Side. As I wandered the crowded streets of my temporary neighborhood resigned to the fact that I would probably have to settle for a bowl of MSG-laden Chinese veggies and rice for dinner, I suddenly saw something that would change my New York experience forever:There it was in all it's mini neon sign glory! "THE JUICE PRESS. ORGANIC, COLD-PRESSED JUICES". Not only had I stumbled across a juice bar (like we had on every other block back in LA) but these guys were badass enough to make and serve COLD-PRESSED juices and smoothies, in the tradition of the late, great Norman Walker. Having been an avid juicer and smoothie wizard myself since the early nineties, I was overjoyed to not only find someone doing it- but doing it oh so right. And thus began my obsession with The Juice Press, and all its glorious organic juices, and superfood snacks.Little did I know, nine years later I would finally track down the man behind it (and his then fiancé Teresa) to get the scoop on his whole juice journey.Our guest Marcus Antebi has since blossomed that tiny shop I first stumbled into at 70 East 1st Street into 71 more stores in 7 states, and counting. His mission is to make healthy, organic, plant-based foods available in a fast, and convenient manner for all who crave it.In this episode you'll learn how Marcus and his partner Michael Karsch created their empire and became the 'juice kings' of New York, and every industry secret nobody else dares to tell. Marcus and his wife Teresa treat the listener to a backstage pass to the current green juice revolution and explain what it takes to source the cleanest ingredients in the world, and why getting fruits and vegetables into your body is crucial to your health. As it turns out, not all juice is created equal, and Marcus teaches us exactly how and why in fascinating detail.If you or someone you know drink fresh-pressed juices and smoothies, you are about to become enlightened to this topic at a depth you never imagined possible.If you've not yet made organic, raw, nourishing plant-based drinks a part of your lifestyle, this show is sure to convince you to do so.Pass this episode along to someone who could use some vitality, energy, and cleansing power in their life.Here's to your greens!Luke Topics Discussed On Today's Episode: How Marcus got into the industry, and his motivation for starting the first store Why cold-pressed raw juice is so much more powerful than pasteurized The core values of the great juice movement, and what it takes to be successful Who is the juice pioneer Norman Walker, and why is he so important The best and worse juicers on the market for home use Why you want to avoid most stevia products  How Marcus dealt with the USDA & FDA food inspections as he was building his juice empire The challenge in finding local organic produce year-round  Why eating locally-grown food is not always the best option for your health  Teresa’s vegan lifestyle, pregnancy and home births The plant kingdom, and what chemicals are doing to our food & environment How to effectively treat deficiencies, and why women have cravings through pregnancy Protein as the problem, not the solution The top 5 ways to avoid getting cancer from your diet The reason processed sugar is the worse thing ever! Is a Ketogenic diet really healthy and sustainable?  The dangers of the Paleo diet  The amazing healing powers of a 3-day water fast   More about this episode.  THIS SHOW IS BROUGHT TO YOU BY: HEALTH IQ. Health IQ.

Have you ever found yourself repeating the same negative patterns in life, caught in a perpetual cycle of frustration and confusion, left without a clue as to how you end up in the same painful situations again and again?Perhaps you've had some persistent issues that were challenging enough to get you into therapy or counseling at some point. Maybe you read a few self-help books. You found yourself able to pinpoint, at least to some degree- the origins of your mental and emotional dysfunction. You might have even figured out that most of your destructive behavior has manifested at least to some degree as a result of trauma, neglect, or abuse you endured as a child. Most of the clues probably led back to your parents’ shortcomings as incompetent early 'life coaches.’ You learn a bit about yourself, and your subconscious motives and egoic drives. You have a few breakthroughs. You get to the root of your problems. But do you ever really CHANGE? Have you ever been able to entirely break free from your 'old' self, and become a genuinely new person as a result of your inner work?For most of us, myself included, many hours in therapy and self-help study might have resulted in some temporary emotional symptom relief, but for the most part, we pretty much stay the same in the long run, barring some hugely monumental sea change shift, usually brought about by some radical transformative event.Well in July 2017 I had such an event. It was a week-long intensive retreat held in Napa, California known as The Hoffman Process. I enrolled, drove up north, and committed to myself that no matter what, I was going to give every ounce of courage and willingness to this somewhat mysterious group experience in the redwoods. I had no idea that I was about to undergo such a profound self-renovation.The Hoffman Process was one of the most profound experiences of my life, which is why I made it my mission after completing the program to share it with you.What you are about to experience is an in-depth exploration of the process, and my time there with their international director, Tim Laurence. We thoroughly unpack how The Hoffman Process combines different spiritual and psychological modalities into one life-changing intensive, its origins, and why the heck it’s so damn effective in producing lasting change.By the end of this show, you will no doubt have a much deeper understanding of what your negative patterns are, how you got them, and most important of all- how to rid yourself of them.Please share this episode with someone who could use some help breaking free from the bondage of their past.Here's to your mental health,Luke Topics Discussed On Today's PART ONE Episode: How Tim first got involved in the Hoffman Process? Who was Bob Hoffman, and how did he come up with this stuff? The Quadinitry concept, and why it’s the key to unlocking our potential The Hoffman cycle of transformation: awareness, expression, compassion, forgiveness to generate new behaviors and deep inner change The importance of taking responsibility and establish healthy boundaries How we take on negative patterns and more importantly, how we break them What are some of the typical family roles that we take on, and how do they shape our lives as adults The stories we carry about our parents that may not be true and causes to be stuck How can we live from our more authentic, spiritual self? The phenomenon of transference, and how it hurts relationships The role that surrender has in the Hoffman Process, and how does it differ from submission and compliance and just giving up How the Process approaches addictions Does positive visualization actually work? And is it possible to break passed the subconscious limitations we impose upon ourselves by doing it What effects that being a facilitator had on him What are some tools that he personally uses when anxiety and pain comes up Lifestyle recommendations For more about this episode.Watch it on YOUTUBE!  THIS SHOW IS BROUGHT TO YOU BY: HEALTH IQ. Health IQ.

Did you know that the world we perceive with our five senses represents but a fraction of the reality that surrounds us? Beyond our standard perception lies an infinite realm, with dimensions of time snd space seldom experienced by most people. What would it be like if you were able to see, feel, and hear a metaphysical, phenomenal universe right here on earth? It's hard to imagine something you've not yet experienced, is it not? As we learn from this conversation, just because you can't experience the supernatural, doesn't mean that it doesn't exist. In this episode, we explore non-physical reality with modern day shaman and healer Mama Medicine, AKA Deborah Hanekamp. Since she was a little girl, Deborah has been able to see and experience realms of reality seldom perceptible by most people. Over the years she's learned to hone her skills and to channel her healing abilities in the most powerful of ways and to help people work through a vast spectrum of challenges both physical, mental, and spiritual. Her shamanic healing work as a Reiki Master and clairvoyant has gained her much notoriety in the consciousness community of New York City, and beyond. She's facilitated Medicine Reading ceremonies all over the world, in addition to her regular sessions in her Soho headquarters, Space By Mama Medicine.   If you've ever wondered if ghosts, auras, and astral travel were merely fantasies of human imagination or actual reality, this mind-bending, soul-healing conversation might be just what the Dr. ordered. Take a deep breath, sit back, and enjoy a journey into the unknown with Mama Medicine. If you know someone who could use some more wonder and magic in their lives, please do them a favor and pass this episode along. The world could use more plenty more beings of light.

In today's climate of spiritual trends, meditation has become one of the hottest. And of course, right? I mean, after all, one of the most axiomatic principles ever uttered by a human is ‘know thyself,' right? And what better way to get to know yourself, but to spend some time alone in silence.But how long would it take to benefit from the practice of quiet introspection? How long could you be silent? How many hours per day could you enjoy (or tolerate) a sitting meditation? How about ten or twenty days without talking to a single soul, spending hour after hour just sitting there doing NOTHING. To some, this prospect sounds like heaven and of course, to others who are less acquainted with their inner selves, this idea might seem utterly terrifying.Our guest Diego Perez (AKA Yung Pueblo) is a veteran of many an inner journey and provides us with a fascinating play by play report on precisely what happens on a Vipassana silent meditation retreat.From this episode, you'll gain a deep understanding of not only the specific protocol of the various meditation retreats but also of the fundamentals of Buddhism, and how to apply the simple yet profoundly powerful principles of the lineage to your everyday life. After all, it's not only what happens on your meditation cushion that matters, but more so how you're able to integrate this ancient wisdom and cause ripples of positive energy to wash over your every moment and to everyone you might encounter on your earthbound journey.Listen, as Yung Pueblo drops knowledge bombs of immense power onto your consciousness, then take a moment to transmit that peace to someone you love by sharing this extraordinary episode with them.Here's to your practice,Luke For more about this episode.  His roots as a kid in Ecuador, and how he got the name Yung Pueblo The current state of human consciousness, and the explosion of Vipassana centers His path from misery to Vipassana The unique donation-based approach of Vippasana Centers Step by step report on what happens on a 10-day Vipassana Meditation retreat Subtle symptoms of trauma, and how they shape our personalities How to apply the principles of Buddhism in modern life Wanting vs. Being: the traps of desire, and how to overcome delusion & anxiety Emotions that arise from clouded Ego, and the liberation path to purity, love & compassion What does it mean to live a life free of suffering The purpose of ego, and why it’s not always the enemy Cleaning up after ourselves, and learning to act through love The physical requirements of Vipassana meditation The cravings and fears that he’s still dealing with On humility and being a “regular” person Lifestyle recommendations  THIS SHOW IS BROUGHT TO YOU BY:FOUR SIGMATIC. Melt away stress, boost immunity, relax & sleep deeper, improve productivity, increase brain power, get stimulation without jitters.

Do you live a healthy lifestyle? If you found your way to this podcast, it's likely that you eat organically, take your vitamins, and do your best to avoid toxins in your environment. You drink clean water, filter your air, and use natural cleaning and body care products. You workout, do yoga, run, and get plenty of good sleep. But what if you were missing a huge piece of the health puzzle? Maybe even the most critical part?The truth is that no matter how health conscious you are, in today's industrialized world we are all exposed to thousands of chemicals on a daily basis. Our air, water, food, earth, and even the buildings we live and work in have been polluted with toxins for at least the past 150 years. It is virtually impossible to avoid the physical accumulation of these substances no matter how much you try. It's almost guaranteed that your body was loaded with a toxic burden before you were even born, due to the environmental and dietary exposure you mother received before and during pregnancy. In this day and age, we’re all born polluted.It's now widely understood and accepted by mainstream medicine and science that most, if not all chronic, and degenerative diseases are caused at least in part by our acute, or long-term exposure to these toxins. Name any condition, and at the root of it, you will find, at least to some degree, toxin exposure.If it's impossible to avoid the accumulation of toxins, even if we make a serious effort to live a healthy lifestyle, what can we do to live a long, and disease-free life? The answer is not living in a bubble of paranoia and sealing ourselves off from the dangers of exposure. The solution to the issue of toxification is of course detoxification. We've got to get this waste out of our bodies. Sounds easy enough, right? But how do you safely and efficiently clean the inside of your body without making the situation worse, or wasting your time doing it incorrectly?Our guest Dr. Daniel Pompa has made a career and amassed tens of thousands of followers by teaching the most cutting edge, and practical methods by which to detoxify your body. In this episode you will learn about his 5-stage detox protocol, that is widely respected all over the world as one of the most scientifically valid, and powerful protocols for purifying your body, and keeping it that way.By the end of this episode, you'll have a deep understanding of the fundamental principles of detoxification, and the mistakes most people make when trying to do it themselves.If you know anyone that's been exposed to toxins (everyone you know), do them a favor and share this episode with them.To your health and happiness,Luke Topics Discussed On Today's Episode: Detoxing from drugs, pesticides and environmental pollutants To get well you must detox the cell Why the way most people detox is ineffective The limits of fasting, bentonite clay and saunas The 5Rs of cellular detoxification The hidden dangers of mold, and why buildings these days are so prone to it now The best way to test your home for mold The best whole house air filter Why metal fillings are so toxic How cellular inflammation leads to disease The importance of diet variation and feast/famine cycles How much your hormones effect your ability to detox effectively The role fasting plays in detox and how to do it right Why ketosis helps reduce inflammation The fact that eating less makes you live longer The hidden dietary neurotoxins and how to avoid them What being fat adapted means and how it helps you, and how to stay toxic free The dangers of root canals Why some people are more sensitive to EMFs, and how it relates to heavy metal burden How we all get lead poisoning in the womb, and what to do about it The power of molecular hydrogen supplementation The controversy with fish oil, DHA, and why some omega fats are bad for you The importance of using toxin binders, and why the ones most people use are ineffective Lifestyle recommendations   For more about this episode. THIS SHOW IS BROUGHT TO YOU BY:HEALTH IQ. Health IQ.

Do you like to get high? Come on, you can admit it. You might not fancy smoking crack in a back alley, but chances are better than even that if you have a pulse, at some point in your life you have used something to alter your state of mind. Your drug of choice might have been chocolate, or maybe just refreshing your Instagram feed one more time, but no matter who you are, we all like to get that hit. To feel happy- to feel free. Or at the very least, distracted.Since the beginning of time, humans have loved to expand their perception of reality and to explore the unknown realms of their inner universe. Through our evolution, we've systematically discovered every mind-altering substance on the planet, and if we couldn't find it, we made it. We've erected sophisticated laboratories, and scoured the jungle floors of The Amazon, all in the great pursuit of getting off. No matter what means we've used to expand our consciousness, the basic fact remains: By and large; people like to get lit.However, when most of us pursue a psychoactive experience, we almost always look outside of ourselves for the chemistry by which to induce the desired state. Except for orgasmic climax, people generally defer to some external stimuli when it comes to escaping the confines of our ordinary embodied state of being.Our guest in this episode, Elian Zach, has made it her life's mission to help people explore the inner dimensions of their minds and souls using two tools older than humankind itself: vibration and oxygen. Or in the case of her uber-popular New York City yoga/meditation hideaway Woom Center, sound and breath. Using an endless array of obscure and outlandish instruments, light shows, and shamanic breathwork practices, she and her partner/husband David Zach-Shemesh regularly take their devoted community of Manhattan cosmonauts on sonic journeys that fall nothing short of miraculous.

Do you like to get high? Come on, you can admit it. You might not fancy smoking crack in a back alley, but chances are better than even that if you have a pulse, at some point in your life you have used something to alter your state of mind. Your drug of choice might have been chocolate, or maybe just refreshing your Instagram feed one more time, but no matter who you are, we all like to get that hit. To feel happy- to feel free. Or at the very least, distracted.Since the beginning of time, humans have loved to expand their perception of reality and to explore the unknown realms of their inner universe. Through our evolution, we've systematically discovered every mind-altering substance on the planet, and if we couldn't find it, we made it. We've erected sophisticated laboratories, and scoured the jungle floors of The Amazon, all in the great pursuit of getting off. No matter what means we've used to expand our consciousness, the basic fact remains: By and large; people like to get lit.However, when most of us pursue a psychoactive experience, we almost always look outside of ourselves for the chemistry by which to induce the desired state. Except for orgasmic climax, people generally defer to some external stimuli when it comes to escaping the confines of our ordinary embodied state of being.Our guest in this episode, Elian Zach, has made it her life's mission to help people explore the inner dimensions of their minds and souls using two tools older than humankind itself: vibration and oxygen. Or in the case of her uber-popular New York City yoga/meditation hideaway Woom Center, sound and breath. Using an endless array of obscure and outlandish instruments, light shows, and shamanic breathwork practices, she and her partner/husband David Zach-Shemesh regularly take their devoted community of Manhattan cosmonauts on sonic journeys that fall nothing short of miraculous. I’ve taken many a trip with them, and each time experienced a profound shift within, which is why I just had to capture some of that mojo and share it with you.In this epic, double episode, you will learn everything you ever wanted to know about reaching nirvana here on earth.

Would you like to be able to hit your flow state on demand? Can you imagine having command over your mental focus, creativity, memory, and even your emotions? What a different world it would be if we humans held the power optimize our consciousness, and as a result, our psychological relationship to each other, and to the planet we all inhabit.Our guest Daniel Schmachtenberger has dedicated his life to figuring out simple solutions to complex problems. The world is a complicated place. Health and happiness tend to elude many of us, due to how overwhelming it can be to figure it all out. Most of us have a desire to make a positive contribution to the world and to derive meaning from our lives, but often don’t know where to start.But to effect positive change globally, we each need a method by which to improve ourselves on a micro level, before branching out to make the monumental changes we likely need to thrive, or perhaps even survive, as a species. Daniel believes that more significant societal issues will more easily be solved using a broad, systemic approach. The catch is that we as individuals have to get our biology and mindset in order first.His mission is gaining momentum through Neurohacker Collective, an organization dedicated to discovering the most cutting-edge technologies for human performance. Their flagship product, Qualia, has taken the nootropic and smart drug world by storm and has quickly emerged as one of the most widely respected, highly studied brain supplements on the market. (Just about every episode of The Life Stylist Podcast recorded in the past year has been done so under the influence of this remarkable product.)In this mind-blowing episode, we learn not only why Daniel and his team created Qualia, exactly how and why it works so well, but also what Neurohacker Collective has in store for the future. Trust me when I say, this is not a future- or episode- you will want to miss.As you listen to this powerfully inspiring conversation with Daniel, think of one person you know who is interested in enhancing their mental and emotional intelligence, and overall quality of life, then share this show with them via text, email, or social media.Here's to upgrading your neurology,Luke For more on this episodeWatch it on YouTube!

How do you make a baby? You just add male and female bits together, and nine months later out pops a cute little tike right? Sure, that's accurate at its core, but what if you want to make a healthy baby? A healthy baby is a whole other story altogether. There are so many things to consider,  such as the two-year detox process the mother (and even father) need to embark on before conception, including the cessation of birth control pills. Then there's the period of gestation, when the mother needs to protect and nourish her body, to increase the likelihood of complication-free birth. Once the first nine months have passed, and the time of actual delivery arrives, there are endless, and profoundly impactful considerations regarding where and how to deliver the baby. The most meaningful decision is of course whether or not to have a home or hospital birth- a natural, or medicalized experience. Both have their risks and benefits.  Then once the little one arrives into this world, parents are faced with a multitude of other choices around breastfeeding, vaccination, circumcision (male genital mutilation) and what to feed the kid once they've been weened. The whole ordeal is incredibly complicated and wrought with potential confusion and misinformation.  Thanks to our guest Dr. Robin Berzin, you will learn the ins and outs (no pun intended) of the whole reproductive process directly from a new mom, who's done all of the research herself from start to finish, applying the most cutting-edge knowledge available to date to her own birthing experience.   Dr. Berzin not only been through it herself but has spent much of her adult life in pursuit of the most effective model of medical care, from the perspective of functional and western medicine.  From this episode, you will gain laser-focus clarity on the different options available to you and your family, and how to navigate some the most meaningful and vital decisions of your life. Decisions that will directly affect your offspring, and quite possibly the generations that will follow. Do the world a favor and please share this profound episode with someone you know who’s likely to procreate at some point. The power of information like this cannot be over estimated.  Here’s to making love. And happy, healthy babies.  Luke  Topics Discussed On Today's Episode: Possible dangers and complications of a tradition hospital birth, and those of home birth What exactly does a home birth entail, and is it risky? What is a midwife, and what is their role in a home birth How do you find and work with a qualified Doula? And why Robin chose to use one for her home birthing process How the environment in the room affects the baby as it pops out: the lighting, the sounds, the smells, the people present, the energy… How she actually had to abandon home birth in the middle of labor, and rushed off in an Uber to the hospital What to do if the natural approach isn’t working, and having to go with interventions like an epidural, or C-section The importance of making sure that you and your doctor are on the same page by covering important topics early on The expense of a hybrid style birth such as the one Robin did Are ultrasounds dangerous? The systematic problem with medicalized birth and pregnancy, and how the medical system is milking people for money unnecessarily Why it’s crucial to get the inside of your body clean as possible before even getting pregnant How Robin tested really high in mercury before getting pregnant, and did a heavy metal detox before having the pregnancy The risks of birth control pills, and why you should be off it for at least two years before having a baby What's the deal with banking eggs, and why you might want to do this right now The role of stem cell therapy in relation to birth The concerns with mammograms The main causes of breast cancer, and how to avoid it What are the benefits of eating the placenta? What is delayed umbilical cord clamping, and why you should do it The issues with the male genital mutilation practice we call circumcision, and why you should’t do it to baby boys Why vaginal swabbing is absolutely needed if you have a C-section  To vaccinate or not to vaccinate?

Welcome to the first episode of 2018!Right about now we're all thinking about our goals and intentions for the new year and making decisions that will shape our future for this one and beyond. This means that most of us are planning strategies, and lists of actions that will deliver the results we want. But is not the common goal of almost everyone to just be happier? More satisfied? To have more peace of mind?Well what if the actions one needs to take aren't actions at all, but rather 'non-actions'? I mean, if the end goal is peace then it stands to reason that perhaps taking some time to unwind, de-stress, and unscramble our connection to god might just be the fastest route to our desired outcome right?Our (second time) guest Emily Fletcher has spent over a decade teaching thousands of people all over the world the fine art of doing nothing. Well, some casual onlookers might call it nothing. But for those of us in the know, myself included, we call it meditating. Yep, good old-fashioned meditation might just be the most significant performance-enhancing activity one can adopt or improve upon this year.Meditation, which was once perceived to be a rare and unique skill only available to exalted beings and mystics from the East, has become increasingly more accessible thanks to knowledgeable (yet relatable) teachers like Emily and her genius company Ziva Meditation, the location at which this very show was recorded.In this episode, Emily breaks down the practice of meditation in a super compelling fashion. She gives us the mystical, esoteric dynamics of meditation that seem to defy all logic, yet tickle our whimsical, curious nature, while still dropping the hard science truth bombs potent enough to break down the intellectual walls of the most prudent skeptic.So whether you're already rooting for team woo-woo, or are so deeply entrenched in your need for 'proof' and 'the science,' you will leave this interview with an infectious excitement to learn to meditate from the start or even to ramp up your existing practice to an impactful level.Based on my personal history of 20+ years of meditation, I can genuinely say that committing to a bonafide regular practice might just be the best thing you did for yourself in 2018, and perhaps even the most significant contribution you can make to your family, friends, and humanity as a whole, given our current and dire need for more enlightened souls on the planet.Do all of us a favor and please share this episode with someone you know who could use some meditation in thier life, or one who just needs a little nudge to pick it up again after letting it slip away.Here's to your consciousness rising in this glorious new year.Luke Topics Discussed On Today's Episode: How meditation promotes empathy and gives you access to right brain intuition Why her practice involves meditating 2x a day for 20 minutes, and why it's so important to follow that tradition Tips for keeping your practice, epically that elusive afternoon session The math on burning units of stress Why proper meditation training is key to avoiding frustration Other tons of practical tips on how to keep your practice consistent and improving What the 3 M’s are, how they will change your life, and why they are the basis of Emily’s upcoming book "The M Word" The fact meditation is a psychic detox where old negative feelings may surface and be released, and how trauma can be healed The practice of Vipassana (10 day retreats) and the powerful effects they produce Why 44% of American women are on antidepressant/anti anxiety medications How "the only away around it is through it” when it comes to dealing with our scariest issues, thoughts and feelings How meditation improves the communication between the right & left hemispheres of your brain, and how that produces the most powerful manifestation in your life Some spiritual tools for manifesting your goals and intentions The dangers of "I'll be happy when” syndrome, and what to do instead We examine the proverb: "when you climb the mountain, you get to see all the mountains you have left to climb”, and how to not give up on yourself How to use self referral for happiness instead of material referral, and how to use your desires as GPS to deliver fulfillment The miraculous effect working with a Life Coach had on Emily How meditation fixes your "fight or flight” response to life How meditation can give you mind blowing sex, and important tips of you're trying to get pregnant The effects meditation has on your neurotransmitters What are mirror neurons, and why they matter Lifestyle recommendations   For more on this episode, click here.  THIS SHOW IS BROUGHT TO YOU BY:FOUR SIGMATIC. Melt away stress, boost immunity, relax & sleep deeper, improve productivity, increase brain power, get stimulation without jitters.
